## I think they realize that they actually *do* stand to earn something called Consumer Trust, but they just think such a thing is worthless in comparison to Corporate Slavery. For every rich idiot that shackles themselves to the Apple ecosystem, there's a poor person who is far more free because they're just trying to use something GOOD rather than shiny. ## I think they realize that they actually *do* stand to earn something called Consumer Trust, but they just think such a thing is worthless in comparison to Corporate Slavery.

## Funny thing about that is, now I believe selfishness, rationally applied across time, is a virtue. So I'd probably reframe that statement to say that it's short-sighted to assume that voting with your dollar is a responsibility that you will bear the burdens of when the products get worse later down the line, so you ought to be making focused, disciplined purchasing decisions as a consumer. Consider that what you're doing is something that other people also are allowed to do, and assume they're just as willing to do it despite the potential harm. If everyone thought this way, we wouldn't reward bad business that peddle shoddy product. ## Funny thing about that is, now I believe selfishness, rationally applied across time, is a virtue.
