It might matter, yes. A company run by a guy like Eric Schmidt is a lot more likely to play nice with the US government when it comes to privacy compared to a company run by a guy like Cook, who from the outside seems obsessed with user-privacy (as long as China isn't directly involved).
- ahmedfromtunis 5y agoDidn't Schmidt retire as CEO 10 years ago (and 3 years ago as chairman)? Isn't now a Pichai-run company?
- paganel 5y agoOf course, just wanted to say that not two big US companies are the same, it highly depends on who leads them. The powers that be that decided that a guy like Schmidt was fit to run a company like Google could do that again.
