Why is it so hard for companies to just do the right thing?
Like it isn't a lack of resources for Apple, it isn't a lack of education or safety awareness.
It's wilfull disregarding of the health of innocent strangers.
People need to go to jail for this.

- jjtheblunt 2y agoI worked as an engineer in Apple for several years in a core division, and there was extensive training, and not perfunctory, about being ethical and doing the right thing. It was a very serious core principle. Because of that, this case really looks like a mistake, not willful disregard, when I consider all we were trained in earnest back then. It seems the EPA found no violation, and Apple learned someone had failed to change filters as frequently as needed.
