apparently, this is a list of companies that support sopa, and those who put this list together says they are going to boycott the companies.. no wait… those who put this list together say that YOU should boycott the companies listed.

pssst.. apple’s on this list.

let’s see how true people are to really fighting the good fight against sopa, huh?  whattaya say?

who you gonna boycott to get your point across?  

To be fair, Microsoft is on there too (but not Google obvs).

Edit: Microsoft withdrew support yesterday. If anyone needs help setting up their new Android phone, let me know.

In re: Apple, the sourcing of that document is non-existent; it’s a google doc that anyone could have written.

I can find nothing about Apple’s official position on their corporate site and google results are unclear at best. Apple, like Microsoft and a bunch of other vendors, is a member of the Business Software Alliance, who officially withdrew their support. Perhaps that’s where the meme started.

There are enough good reasons to dislike Apple without making up new ones.
