Can you give an example of a moral company? Is Apple one?

Apple tries to own all economic activity on the platform, like a mobster running a protection racket.

Meta is a voyeur, trying to figure out when you take a shit so they can put ads for toilet paper in front of your face.

It’s really a matter of taste.

Naturally, moral is a relative term when it comes to companies in a society like ours. However I would say Purism, Pine64, Raspberry Pi, or Framework would be acceptable.

Yes.

If you close your eyes on cozying up to authoritarian regimes. Apple operates in China at Beijing's pleasure. Much of it is behind the scenes because that's how Chinese like to do. Compare that to US, where everything is a show. Look no further than the gold plated plaque that Apple gave to Trump. That was shameful.
