Yes, I agree. That makes Apple completely beholden to the CCP. If they anger the CCP, their whole business is gone. But I fail to see how that makes any of this more acceptable. They had 15 years to diversify. They didn't, but chose to instead spent that time just becoming more involved with a brutal autocracy, gambling their whole company on it.

And I kind of feel like your reply reinforces that point.
