This wasn't an argument just merely and observation.

I don't see how this is a victory lap, unless that is your way of agreeing with me?

"but asus doesn't put themselves out there as this great company that cares about people"

However, dell does, samsung does, so does sony and also amazon. (to name a few)

So some unknown company such as asus who makes a product and doesn't choose to do the type of marketing that apple and the others I have named is now innocent of being complicit of the same violations?

Hmmm, that's some fasinating logic you have displayed.
