Here we go again....

" A report claimed...."

".... has been accused ...."

"blah, blah, blah..."

... Where "claims" and "accusations" constitute definitive proof.

Soon we will see coming from China:
"A report claimed {that Apple forces workers to work without pay]'

"[Apple] has been accused [of stealing ip from Huawei]....."

Isn't  it time to stop this bullshit?

It's just standard propaganda crap:   You start with an unproven assumption or accusation and then just keep building on it till the fools assume it's reality.  

Trump was a master at it:   "Many people are saying...."  and then letting FauxNews and the right wing propaganda machine repeat the lie till it became reality for the cult.

Yeah, who are you going to believe, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch, plus a plethora of other NGO sources, or the Chairman for Life successor of Mao...

Go ahead and take your time to figure that out...

"In a blog post, Wood said Steve Jobs told him Apple can and will do this to developers on the platform. Here’s Wood paraphrasing a phone call from Jobs himself:

“You know those handcars, the little machines that people stand on and pump to move along on the train tracks? That’s Karelia. Apple is the steam train that owns the tracks.”

You could argue that the popular narrative here isn’t completely accurate. Apple blogger John Gruber stated that Sherlock’s web integrations were planned at Apple before Watson debuted, and that Apple offered Wood a job working on Sherlock two different times. But these facts couldn’t stand in the way of a good story, and the term “Sherlocked” stuck.

So "Sherlocked" really means a popular cover story of some instance of outrageous Apple behavior, when in fact, Apple would be expected to be working on said feature, but delivering it later, and fully baked in integration.

This seems a reverse logic of what really happened. Goldwind Science & Technology may be trying to train Uyghurs to work. If you are being trained you are not considered a formal employee and got paid little. Similar things happened in silicon valley. Some young people wants to get into some high tech company. They volunteered to do work without pay. Without the facts it is too early to judge Goldwind Science & Technology is using forced labor. 

In the US job-required training is paid time. If your time is spent on company or client work, you should be getting paid. Period. "Fuck you pay me" is the correct term.

The key point is whether they are being paid same as regular employee. There are news some students from elite schools such as Harvard or MIT are being paid very well. 

No, the key point is that it is forced labor, that they have no choice in whether they want to participate in the work, whether the pay is acceptable, and whether the conditions of employment, including locations of employment, are acceptable.

There is a problem here. CCP always like to stress that it deems race equality is very important. Why a Chinese company dares to violate this policy? Again this human right group does not provide doubtless evidence. It seems just a overstretched accusation. 

Sure, because China is well known for allowing investigative journalists into the country for the express purpose of exposing China's human rights violations. /s

I don't know where you came up with that statement about equality, but given that the population is some 95% Han, and there is evidence that the PRC is attempting to limit reproduction of minorities, which meets the definition of genocide, then of course, why would anyone believe the PRC? 

The evidence you quoted is not enough to be a true evidence. 

Looks like there is even evidence provided by Chinese bureaucrats;

https://www.reuters.com/world/china/exclusive-amid-accusations-genocide-west-china-polices-could-cut-millions-uyghur-2021-06-07/

"Chinese birth control policies could cut between 2.6 to 4.5 million births of the Uyghur and other ethnic minorities in southern Xinjiang within 20 years, up to a third of the region’s projected minority population, according to a new analysis by a German researcher.

The report, shared exclusively with Reuters ahead of publication, also includes a previously unreported cache of research produced by Chinese academics and officials on Beijing’s intent behind the birth control policies in Xinjiang, where official data shows birth-rates have already dropped by 48.7% between 2017 and 2019.

Adrian Zenz’s research comes amid growing calls among some western countries for an investigation into whether China’s actions in Xinjiang amount to genocide, a charge Beijing vehemently denies.

The research by Zenz is the first such peer reviewed analysis of the long-term population impact of Beijing’s multi-year crackdown in the western region. Rights groups, researchers and some residents say the policies include newly enforced birth limits on Uyghur and other mainly Muslim ethnic minorities, the transfers of workers to other regions and the internment of an estimated one million Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in a network of camps."

But, but, no evidence...

This seems prudent. /s

There is actually no big tech in the EU.

The EU effectively murders any company with growth prospects long before they reach a trillion dollar valuation, all in the name of corporate and national competition.

In terms of shipment numbers, Samsung is thought to be producing 80 million units of the display for the new iPhone, with between 120 million and 130 million total OLED panels anticipated to ship to Apple in 2021. For LG, it is apparently aiming for 30 million units for the "iPhone 13," and a total of 50 million overall for the year.

Those numbers are just mind blowing. 
This is one reason why Apple could not put Pro motion in the iPhone 12 Pro. The sheer numbers required by Apple to put into their flagship devices is just staggering.
Before someone says "Yeah, but Samsung sells more phones",  I don't think they sell as many brand new flagship devices as Apple.

The numbers are impressive.  Apple sells a lot of phones.  The volume of phones is not a reason that Apple didn't put high refresh panels in the 12 Pro.  Samsung had the capability to provide the panels for the 12 Pro/Max.  Apple chose not to put the panel in the 12's.  Whatever their reasoning, it wasn't due to lack of capacity.  

Why would anyone mention Samsung selling more phones?  It would be an irrelevant factoid.  Samsung Display makes panels, not phones.  Don't let petty fanboyism color your commentary.

Samsung didn't even deliver its first VRR screen in a Galaxy model until August of last year, too late for Apple iPhone 12. I could also make the argument that, while Samsung sells more phones, its ASP is reportedly just until $300, while Apple's iPhone is somewhere in the mid $850's. This is a pretty good indication that Apple does in fact sell more premium phones, and would also need quite a bit more VRR LTPO OLED screens than Samsung would require for its own products.

(Samsung's unit marketshare is approximately 20 percent, while Apple's iPhone is approximately 16 percent, a 25 percent advantage over iPhone).

So where have all of those VRR LTPO OLED displays been going to if Samsung had enough production for even just Apple's iPhone 12 Pro Max?

No reported shortage because Apple didn't want to create it by specifying it for any iPhone 12 model?

I have provided a link to Samsung's first Galaxy with VRR LTPO OLED panel;
