It’s more of a major goof on googles part than anything bad. These big prudish companies will start to pull ads if they think their brand is at risk. Apple has had rumors of expanding their ad network so if Google keeps slipping they might step in.

You are assuming that they think rationally

Nah, they will just get mad and still buy the MacBook because their beliefs are not actually sincere.
