Bowyer Research has filed a corrected form PX14A6G with the SEC to amend an error in their previous filing regarding Apple Inc.'s proxy ballot Proposal No. 8. The proposal, which urges shareholders to vote in favor, calls for Apple to issue a report by March 31, 2025, analyzing the congruency of the company's privacy and human rights policy positions with its actions, particularly in war zones and under oppressive regimes. Apple's Board of Directors opposes the proposal, claiming that the company already respects human rights and is transparent about its approach to complex situations. However, Bowyer Research criticizes the Board's response as mischaracterizing the proposal and offering vague, nonbinding commitments in the face of serious concerns about the company's policies in situations where human rights abuses are at play. The report by Bowyer Research highlights instances of Apple's content moderation practices and legal actions against employees that raise questions about the company's commitment to human rights, especially in relation to the Chinese Communist Party and the contrasting approaches to Russia and China. The report concludes that Apple's Board has not effectively addressed the substance of the critique and that the company's stance risks further controversy and reputational damage.
