Re: Who ever said life was supposed to be fair?

Never said it was right. Clearly said that life wasn't fair.
Read a little more carefully...

The guy was free to speak.

I do believe, however, that doing so, would have been a job limiting decision.

However, Apple is also free to exert pressure. (most likely of a financial nature, and directed towards his place of employment.)

Again, threatening people with deep pockets can be risky.

Just sayin dude, not supporting Apple here, but, they threatened Apple, Apple threatened back, the dude chose employment.

The guy doesn't work for Apple, so it's none of Apple's business what he says and doesn't say.

His employer should have told Apple to stick it where the sun don't shine!

Apple apparantly has some influence over his employer, this is true. His employer didn't feel that supporting him against Apple was a wise business decision.

Bummer. That's life. It aint fair, it just is.
