>Western companies don’t talk about values, Western governments do.
This is completely wrong.
Every other ad on TV in the US is preaching about how much Walmart/Amazon/Pepsi/etc. care about the environment/LGBT rights/safe working conditions/etc.
Western companies talk about their supposed values _all the time_, they're just mostly full of shit when they do.
I’m talking specifically about values in an international context. Google won’t try to enforce free speech values it loves when operating in China. They will abide with warantless searches there if need be.
The US government though has more power to resist such demands acting as a sovereign equal to the Chinese State.
