Apple CEO Tim Cook announced to the Anti-Defamation League that the company will ban speech or news content that they do not like.

According to CBN News, Cook who received the “Courage Against Hate” award from the league, reportedly defended his company’s decision to ban speech on Apple platforms that “violate[d] the values of the company” during the 2016 election.

While accepting his award, Cook noted that since the “earliest days of I-Tunes” the company has ban songs that spread hate. Cook said, “At Apple, we are not afraid to say that our values drive our curation decisions.”

He continued, “We believe the future should belong to those who use technology to build a better, more inclusive, and more hopeful world.”

“I believe the most sacred thing that each of us is given is our judgment, our morality, our own innate desire to separate right from wrong. Choosing to set that responsibility aside in a moment of trial is a sin,” he added.

Following Cook’s announcement, Evangelist Franklin Graham responded to Apple’s decision to censor speech. In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Graham asked his readers, “Who defines morality?”

He continued, “Apple CEO Tim Cook recently received the Courage Against Hate award, ‘for his work as a champion of unity, diversity, and social progress.’”

“In his acceptance speech, Cook–who in 2014 declared “I’m proud to be gay” and became the first openly homosexual CEO of a Fortune 500 company–defended the banning of certain speech and news media on Apple platforms when they violate the “values” of their company,” he added.
