US tech companies are effectively intelligence assets anyway. Considering how close the heads of these companies like to stay to trump to buy favor, I can't think of a more valid target for Iran. Trump may not give a shit about anything that doesn't directly impact him, but the tech bros will throw a fit when their shit starts getting broken.

They are they are more then legitimate targets, they're all involved in Israel's killbot fucking kill chain automated decision making bullshit lucrative contracts where they demand these companies put the data centers in their country to get them. US cash of course.

Oh no! What a shame, a damn shame. I would hate for the tech parasites to lose some of their Israeli investments that Israel demamded they put in country for their lucrative killbot, et al dystopian programs.

Cool, may I suggest you kick things off by nuking Apple, Amazon, Google and Meta.

[–] VampirePenguin@lemmy.world 1 points 6 minutes ago

Don't forget Microsoft

[–] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 39 points 16 hours ago

If they had nukes, none of this would have happened. 😅

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 25 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Facebook first, then Amazon, then google then apple.

I NEVER thought I'd put apple last.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 13 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

hate to say it but I would amazon last because they are kinda handy. X should be numero uno though.

[–] uninvitedguest@piefed.ca 1 points 27 minutes ago

I have $400 of gift cards I'd like to spend first, if they could hold off until Thursday I'd be obliged.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 5 points 15 hours ago

Google first. But fintech too.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 4 points 15 hours ago

[–] Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 11 points 16 hours ago

Iran Threatens to Attack U.S. Tech Companies Starting April 1

[–] crunchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

What was that about national security and bringing those jobs back stateside?

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

Well, the jobs would still be there.
