No. Destroying another's property is not right regardless of the wrong they did to you. Both parties here are in the wrong.

- claudiawerner 6y agoThat would be according to one moral theory, but another (critical) approach elaborated upon by 19th c. thinkers rejects it as a "mere pretension", just as with the system's laws and rights. In the wrong conventionally, according to our morality developed in the system it works for? Sure. But on a matter like this, I'm personally more than happy to take another look. Many moral systems that serve the current structures we are rightly critical of - the moral system that had no problem with slavery or marital rape, for instance. I imagine the people destroying property might just feel the same way about Apple's right to property, and the system which provides it.
