5. Good for Apple. They also know what is good for business. There is a longstanding joke about how black people prefer

Iphones over Androids. There is a bit of truth to it. This is why diversity matters, not just because it is the right thing, but it is good to understand your customer base. Insisting that Apple end its diversity programs, when there is some truth to the fact that a lot of black people and younger people prefer iPhones over other phones is stupid. Younger folks in general do not approve of this " Anti DEI" nonsense.
Target is seeing a decline in visitors ever since they dropped their DEI initiatives. Apple does not want to FAFO.
