    Wrong. The Chinese government does.

      Ok, then Apple can have a larger impact in Foxconn's work policies than anyone else who is likely to be influenced by an article in the NY Times. I don't think the Chinese government especially cares about public opinion.

        Apple, Samsung, Sony, Microsoft, Dell, HP, etc. WHY single out Apple?
        • fpgeek 15y ago
          Because Apple is Foxconn's most prominent customer and probably their largest as well?

  Sure I understood that from your first post. I am interested in your opinion about the larger issue. Is what is described in the article OK now and not newsworthy, or does the article describe disturbing things about labor practices that are intrinsically newsworthy?

    No its not ok. But WHY single out the iPad?
