Sad to see Intel and others be so spineless.

  Corporations are spineless, both literally and figuratively.

    Unnecessary pedantry. Read the comment as "sad to see the Intel executives and others be so spineless".

      What do you think the "figuratively" part of the statement means? I presumed it to mean exactly what you suggested. In my mind anyway - a figuratively spineless corporation is a corporations where executives and others are the spineless ones. Please enlighten me on what a figuratively spineless corporation is, if it is not that.

      It is not competitively advantageous to act in a 'spineful' manner

    Spineless corporations Reminds me of title of TV series about Mafia : La piovra "An epic crime saga of power, money, violence and corruption. the mafia controls everything through local and international networks like an octopus, anyone who tries to bring them down pays the ultimate price." https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086779 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086779
