Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are cowards - X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it? (www.theverge.com)

"Coward" implies that they want to do good, but are too scared to do so. There's no reason to think that, and indeed we shouldn't. They want money and Elon makes them money; that's all there is to it. If ethics mattered to them at all, they wouldn't have been able to climb to the position of CEO of a major corporation in the first place.
