If Tech companies had tobacco warning labels

Tobacco warning labels definitely cover the health impact of the surrounding people as well. Some translated samples from across the EU (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_packaging_warning_mess...):

> Protect children: don't make them breathe your smoke.

> Smoking while pregnant harms your child.

> Smoking severely harms you and the people around you.

> Smokers' children are more likely to start smoking.

The phrasing might not be perfect, but obviously there is a huge difference in scale in what you compare. (and I don't mean in amounts of taxes, but in amounts of tactics to minimize them)

Reminds me of the response Kerry Packer gave to the Australian parliament when accused of evading/minimizing his taxes: "I am not evading tax in any way, shape or form. Of course, I am minimising my tax. Anybody in this country who does not minimise his tax wants his head read. I can tell you as a government that you are not spending it so well that we should be donating extra."

> I'll listen to that sanctimonious crap from the first person who posts their tax return showing the line where they added on some extra money they didn't owe.

You are conflating voluntary donations (which actually happens) with dodging the taxes that everybody is supposed to pay.

Tax avoidance follows the law by the letter but obviously violates the spirit.
