Apple's model labour practices
,----[ Quote ]
| Beating Microsoft might warm the cockles
| of Apple fans' hearts, but it really isn't
| the best benchmark if you understand the
| statistics.
|
| Statistics are not the media's long suit,
| however. In the last few days, the
| headlines have been screaming about a
| spate of suicides at Apple's supplier,
| Foxconn. Trades union and labour activists
| have been calling for a boycott of Apple's
| next iPhone, to punish the company for
| doing business with a firm where the poor,
| abused workers apparently see no way out
| but to jump off the roof.
