The fact that they're asking her to apologize is Just ass backwards.

They should apologize, and look into the issue, and possibly, stop, war profiting.

That's okay. They're going to lose a lot of Windows users, forcing them to upgrade Perfectly good computers.

i agree with what you're saying from an ethical standpoint. i think she's right to protest.

but it's not "an issue", it's a huge fucking client of theirs. from a business standpoint its a huge ask to fire a whole military as a customer.
