I'm saying that this is a weak argument:

    Apple complies with law in countries where it operates.

Instead one should value the act itself:

    Is it right or wrong to aid in restricting ~1b people's access to knowledge and information 
    about their government's past deeds[1], current affairs[2], corruption[3], etc.

I think it's wrong, other may think it's right.

But saying they're following local laws is similar to saying that someone is just respecting German WW2-laws on Jews or apartheid in South Africa.
