Apologies, in retrospective that was wrong to say.
I should have said “entities based in the US jurisdiction (or that are influenced by American-style corruption)”.
You are correct that the nationality plays no role in this.
That being said, it is fact that all major US B2C tech platforms support corruption, engage in crime, engage in spyware activities and leverage shallow pompous PR copytext about alleged belief in free speech and “government official this or that”.
Just realize Americans are not a homogeneous group, of course Google/Meta/MS/Oracle are all shitbag companies with leaders who support Trump, as far as I’m aware Gabe does not and has not contributed to rightwing government.
I understand the frustration and mistrust, I live here. But it’s important to realize that is a small minority of people no matter how much of an outsize influence their power and corruption has over all of us.
Israel is bad, but not all Israelis or Jews are, not supporting Israeli companies that are govt backed/ran by "ex"IDF makes sense, but companies that don’t shouldn’t be lumped in just because of that.

That ship has really sailed.
