Hyundai has a known track record of circumventing the law in the US, but you’d rather assume innocence. Can’t help that you side with child labor trafficking.

The wrongful arrests aren’t a death sentence, it’s an inconvenience of getting caught up in a much larger willful breach of federal law. They’re probably back at work the next day. I’ve personally been detained by police wrongfully. Not a big deal.

LG Energy Solution, the battery manufacturer, said 47 of its employees were detained.” - https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/us/politics/hyundai-plant-immigration-raid-georgia.html https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/us/politics/hyundai-plant... South korea has made a deal to bring everybody arrested home. Because without the due process you or I would expect if arrested, their citizens could be locked up for months without legal recourse or end up “deported” to a for-profit prison in a different country (aka trafficked into slavery).
