It is unconscionable that Apple is offering major financial support to Saudi-government-funded Twitter and its boss, who is proudly amplifying right-wing extremists -- and enemies of science and democracy -- at every turn. https://www.macrumors.com/2023/06/27/silo-first-episode-twitter/
Then again, it's equally unconscionable for journalists to be pouring their work into the site. They are helping him tear down the system that makes their work possible.

How is this worse than their collaboration with the Chinese government to censor and monitor residents? At least when they're helping the Saudis they're using an American middle-man.
