While I certainly agree that it’s comical to expect a company to 100% support your beliefs, I’m also in favor of not using a company if the beliefs of said company are completely contrary to yours. That’s why I’m not using stuff like google, microsoft, amazon etc.
Voting with your wallet is a very good thing and I fully support people who do it.

If someone asks me to build a sort-function for their table, I’m not gonna write an email: “Yes and I actually used radix sort for the table contents which makes it extremely fast and performant!!!”. I’m writing: “Done”.

I’d rather see money laundering and tax evasion continue than my privacy infringed.
So we keep coming back.
Both are valid and a very clear sign that I should stay away from either of those
