An alternative to Apple using cobalt from Congo is Apple using cobalt from Cuba, Russia, Iran, and China itself, a perfect quadriga. And Apple works as one hug

An alternative to Apple using cobalt from Congo is Apple using cobalt from Cuba, Russia, Iran, and China itself, a perfect quadriga. And Apple works as one huge lobbying company on behalf of Chinese state, interfering on any USG attempt at tackling Chinese political influence in US. You may think of how Apple may have monetary incentive to lobby for China against anti-slavery laws, but you cannot conceivably imagine why in the world Apple lobbies for laxer campaign financing rules, and against stricter rules against foreign campaign donations. The only way to solve the Apple issue, is make it cease its existence as a business. If US don't kill the Apple it surrenders this option to the enemy. For as long as Apple has such enormous incentives for continuing being amicable with communists to continue its existence, they will continue to lobby for them.
