Apple does not have tax authority over you.
Apple does not have a monopoly on the legitimate use of force in any geographic region.
Apple does not pass or enforce laws or have citizens.
It is big and rich and powerful, and like all big and rich things with that much reach, literally cannot do anything without making someone angry.
This does not make it a government, and pretending it is one is a silly distraction from holding it to account when it does something bad.
