What possible upside is there to the company or its employees from letting these surveys run? Conducting statistically meaningful surveys is a complex discipline that requires an expert's training. The only thing these naive surveys can lead to is accusations and grievances.

While there is ambiguity, it seems most likely a federal labor complaint or lawsuit against Apple is where the outcome would be determined. Attempting to censor these conversations in their Slack teams would be similarly illegal I would think, even if Apple employees are operating in a hybrid remote/office model.
