  Are there any other human rights that you can sign away? In any case, it's clear from the article that the tenants here didn't agree. Why can't Apple be partially at fault? Perhaps not in a legal sense, but in a moral sense. Couldn't they agree to only work with ad companies which don't violate human rights? And set up compliance oversight? Or, agree to pay more taxes in order for the government to have the resources to do that? (Or rather, not fight having their taxes raised for this purpose.)

  The tenants did not freely enter into a contract. They are being "temporarily" housed there, with rent paid by the local government, as they were made homeless. This is why they are being mistreated - they are stuck where they are with no bargaining power, and nobody has any incentive to make their life easy. The landlord will keep getting paid regardless.
