you think the next CEO will be any different? the board wouldn't have elevated him to that position unless he was willing to kowtow to trump when needed

  Sigh... I spent over a decade at Apple. Tim was given a very long leash. So no, I don't think Ternus will give Trump a gold "You're a good boy!" trophy. As I said, that was probably one of the most embarrassing things an Apple employee has ever done. Most of the people I know who are still at Apple despise Tim. Also, you might want to do a little research on the current board members.

    I hope you're right! But that would be a significant break with the "kiss the ring and enjoy the protection" attitude that every other major tech company has taken

      Most tech companies didn't end up in a public relations fight with the FBI to defend the rights of a domestic terrorist. To do so was the right thing, as it meant standing up for everyone; giving up on the rights of the unpopular means in the end, none of us have that protection. It's a hell of a stance for a public company to take though, and a time Apple can say they were on the right side of history. Will anyone say the same about Cook being so subservient this time?
