Not if the customer is killing a potential future adversary to my family or even distant relatives.

Morality is a social construct. The selfish gene is a biological construct.

This is very logical, albeit sounding rude. I think the parent commenter should not be downvoted for this.

If you cant come to terms with what your employer is doing, it's in the right of the either party to terminate the contract.

Morality is a subjective argument and non-sequiter here anyway.

The phone is not that bad for reading.

Granted, reading PDFs is harder. But reading webpages is mostly fine.

When I started using phones, I didn't have the luxury of high speed internet and multimedia-focused apps. I should probably be thankful for that.

Otherwise, that time is his free time and he can do what he likes.
