The anger towards Apple in this thread is misdirected. The US government's official stance recognizes "that there is but one China and Taiwan is part of China" and that "the United States does not support Taiwan independence"

From: https://www.state.gov/u-s-relations-with-taiwan/

Why should Apple be expected to take a political stance at odds with the official Chinese and US government policies?

The only way the US was allowed to trade with China is if it accepted the one China policy. The US is FORCED to not accept Taiwan.

Taiwan is not part of China. Period.
