Apple CEO Cook opposes Trump, backs 'dreamer' immigrants in Supreme Court

WASHINGTON - Apple Inc CEO Tim Cook on Wednesday filed a brief at the U.S. Supreme Court opposing President Donald Trump's effort to end a program that protects from deportation hundreds of thousands of immigrants who were brought into the United States illegally as children.

The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments on Nov. 12 over Trump's 2017 plan to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. Trump's move to rescind DACA was blocked by lower courts. Cook's brief stated that the motivation for weighing in on one of the biggest cases before the Supreme Court in its new term that starts on Monday was to support of the company's diverse workforce.

Cook's brief is likely to be one of many filed in support of DACA recipients in the coming days ahead of a Friday deadline. Others that have challenged Trump's action include the University of California, labor unions and various states including California and New York.

So?

Yes tim_cook please back more of them so Apple can have a much better diversity in their programmers and continue releasing shit software updates requiring emergency patches mere days after release. Instead of getting actual competent individuals. Totally makes sense.
