Aside from the massive overreaction about those companies, I mean "violently unethical evil"?, it doesn't really matter who is calling out the bad thing, does it? I guess because they are also bad guys, apple should just get away with it. Let's get mad at them instead.
Few people think a criminal would be a good judge, and so I don’t think e.g. Facebook should be talking about this without fixing their own misdeeds, not spend boatloads of money lobbying against it. All these big tech bros are currently doing is throwing mud at each other (Google complaining about RCS in iMessage while at the same time breaking it themselves) - literally none of them is making any significant changes. So yeah, I think they should shut the F up and start doing something themselves.
