I’m talking for example about Apple relying on child labor in China for cheap labour, being directly responsible for suicides in the factories of their Chinese partners, them sabotaging their clients phones to make them slower.
Not only limited to apply but also others like Facebook, Google,… Ideally the information should be presented in a simple and easy to get format.
The problem is that this would need to be proven. We all know it happens, but if anyone makes that website they need 100% proof or they’re going to be sued.
The real problem would be finding a beefy enough server to actually host it. “Big tech” has a hand in an immense amount of evil.
Man, people are still referencing that terrible 2016 iPhone 6 battery performance update that was in the wild for 6 weeks.
You call it battery performance update just as Apple stated, others call it deliberately slowing down their phone.
Re: the Apple labor thing - If you want a list of people who have been exposed to child labor issues, a good shorthand is just to search for a list of Foxconn’s clients.
Sadly, it’s just about every major tech company under the sun. Not just Apple. It’s Sony, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Nintendo, Dell, Levano, HP, Cisco, Intel, Moto, etc.
“Bad” can be quite broad and it might be cumbersome to check and categorize all of the “badness” out there. You might have better luck narrowing down a bit. For example, if you’re interested in AI/algorithm incidences, there are at least two that came up on search:
These are click bait bad, not well read into bad. “Cheap Chinese labor” is not inherently bad unless you’re for isolationism. Apple, nor any western company is directly responsible for suicides. Jobs at Foxconn were considered one of the better ones relative to the rest of the country, and workers live on site in dorms u like what you’d find in the west. The suicide rate was lower than all 50 US states. Apple only slowed down phones whose batteries were degraded so much that they couldn’t handle the power draw. The alternative was having the phone crash and reboot. They screwed up by not announcing it clearer.
Its not bad if you don’t look!
