What exactly is the mechanism of exploitation or coercion? It's not like workers at a coal mine forced to rent their housing from the employer, and forced to buy everything at the employer-run company store at vastly inflated prices, often incurring a growing debt over time. People are free to spend their money as they see fit. You don't see how Apple's products provide value for money. Many others disagree. Their priorities and values are likely different from yours. You're basically saying that you're smarter than EVERYONE who buys Apple products, that you see what they all miss, and that they need to be protected like an infant needs to be protected from eating chips of lead paint. Which is absurd.
