> I absolutely don’t want tech companies to use the money I pay them to harm people. Just one example of many, but the companies that make the CPUs you and all of use use every day, also supply to militaries. I am unaware of any tech company that directly does physical warfare on the battlefield against humans.

Another example: those companies that make drinkable water, also supply to militaries. But there might be a difference between supplying drinking water and making AI killing machines

As far as I know, Apple does not supply their chips for military use.
