There is a big difference between supporting a country like North Korea and a domestic government organization.
Imagine if companies started bowing down to this kind of behavior and stopped supporting politically contentious entities. There is a large portion of the country who would agree that Planned Parenthood is doing things just as bad as ICE. Should companies stop supporting Planned Parenthood because large groups of people are offended by their services?

The domestic government organization is highly controversial along political lines.

I mean, yes, thats exactly what happens. Planned Parenthood was dropped from the government medical service program as a provider. Several organizations are often criticized for working with the police- we have a thread on the front page right now about the DoJ being given personal info via Google.
Let's say GitHub was working with domestic intelligence agencies to add backdoors to various repos for the sake of increasing US security. Would you say that is apolitical?
Or does it only become political when you disagree with it?
I mean, yes? Working with China, Saudi Arabia, Iran, North Korea, etc. are stances.
