In the News In a rather unusual move, both Google and Apple have publicly backed the fight against "Proposition 8", both by words as well as by donation. Proposition 8 is an initiative measure in the state of California that would ban same-sex marriages in California by amending the Constitution of the state to include that "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California". Both companies gave out their reasoning for supporting the fight against 'Prop 8'.

We know that relationships are defined by mutual emotion, and that homosexual relationships can be and are equally emotive. It then behoves us to equally respect them. But then I'm posting from the UK, and we are still only on civil unions...
