They most certainly did. This is both public virtue signaling and internal employee appeasement. They have good lawyers, so they had the lawyers come up with another reason, but it's purely a moral stance.

And I'm sure some of those people are these mythical, awful virtue-signalling hypocrites that people seem to hate so much. But what makes this virtue signalling/hypocritical rather than a values-based decision? Maybe you think Clearview is fine to offer the service, but there are people who disagree based on moral, ethical and practical arguments - and this action seems in line with Apple's stated privacy concerns and prior enforcement of their enterprise distribution agreement.
