A ZEFS statement mentioned, “Russian legislation prohibits propaganda of homosexuality and other sexual perversions among minors. After Apple CEO Tim Cook publicly called for sodomy, the monument was dismantled pursuant to Russian federal law on the protection of children from information that promotes the denial of traditional family values.”
This is in stark contrast to what Tim Cook shared about his private life, and I don’t suppose he should make a move and sue them for libel as well as defamation. It is already 2014 now, and this is pretty much a sad thing to hear, just like how selfies should be banned because of the increased risk of head lice spreading.
