Tim Cook called Mark Zuckerberg on the carpet for being a weasel of a capitalist, as he did not spend the money on the security, any trekkie would have known he needed to secure his FB customers from Russian, Prussian or Roulette Wheelers & Dealers, who could infiltrate the status quo and hack away at our Democracy. Tim Cook didn't profit by being courageous, he already was taking his company into the history books as the FIRST TRILLION DOLLAR corporation EVER.
Walk into an APPLE store and his employees are happy- they are smart and well cared for and that trickles down to me and you.
I worked for Bob Iger, who came up to me in the cafeteria to thank me for the extra effort I and my news team were doing, and I was beside myself by his graciousness. He is not in command of the Disney Culture that everyone who's ever worked there will tell you precedes everyone who's ever tried to take command, but he is forthright, honest and he is a role model of integrity.

I have worked for Les Moonves and Barry Diller- they are not even close to being of Iger & Cook caliber but I have no need to go into excruciating detail that I have.
I am so lucky to have had the opportunities to work with all of them and I share my thoughts because I know how billionaires get mashed up and bashed up together. I'm not even sure if they all are billionaires but I sure hope two of them are.

By the way, it was an Apple employee who told me Bob Iger is on his company's Board of Directors- trust me, that speaks volumes about both men.
And one last note- for those in Weho and other communities adjacent to the Beverly Center (actually in L.A.,) and I assume other locations, there are in-store classes and seminars (see photo) that are free*- check for them on: Apple.com.
*(I was told by the employee who fixed my iPhone for free they were free- he said they are not allowed to call attention to themselves- I get that, but if these classes aren't free- blame what's his name- I know it, but I gave him my word, I wouldn't reveal it. Not to cop attitude but, "Not my problem.")
