Apple itself may share liability with Wistron for worker riots
India... the great “democracy” where mobs rule.randominternetperson said:This story is confusing. Will the actual rioters be held accountable for, you know, rioting? Surely Indian law doesn't say "if your employer screws you over, bring 1,999 of your friends and trash the place." Also since when is Apple the "contractor"? Or is this term like "bi-weekly" where it means to completely different things?
At the end of the day, I'm confident that this (the government inquiry part, not the losing production for months) won't be more than a paperwork hassle for Apple. Apple will bring forth a raft of documentation showing that they did everything they could to hold Wistron accountable. I find it impossible to believe that Tim Cook and his senior executives are hypocrites on this particular issue.

US government designates drone maker DJI as a national security concern
And the flow of Chinese government money into domestic terror groups Antifa and BLM are just part of their attacks on the US.georgie01 said:
The CCP is doing far more than that here in the US... Their tactics are being exposed. It’s shocking what they’ve done here, all while we sit on our lazy bums and think they’re not a threat. They’re literally tying to dismantle the US, from outside and within, and are succeeding, in order to become the world’s power.normang said:
Again, would they do that if they had a "choice"? Maybe, then again, how much of what you hear really true or propaganda. There is little doubt perhaps that China's population is well monitored, that appears to be done by cell phones if again, reports are real.. Whether there is constant drone surveillance is something else that I don't think we can be real sure of.. perhaps thats happening too....anantksundaram said:
They can start by jettisoning their "... abusive genetic analysis and high technology surveillance..." (assuming the accusations are true).normang said:
Plus blaming DJI for something they really have no choice in, to me is silly,

Coalition demands Apple take more action to defend human rights
I agree Apple should attempt to manufacture, sell and profit in less compromised regions than China, but they’re in too deep now.

Apple Pay growth will make it the next antitrust fight with regulators
Nonsense. Any credit card can be added to the Wallet. This isn’t a credible line of argumentation.

Apple may potentially ship a record-breaking 250 million iPhones in 2021
That’s not uncommon here. The argument used to be they were “only a blog”, therefore they weren’t responsible for inaccuracies, spelling errors or posting the kind of trash that Dan Dilger slings. Then they wanted to be taken seriously as a source of news to grow the audience, but failed to engage in standard reporting practices. I think they need to choose whether they want to be taken seriously or not at some point.melgross said:Well, now they corrected the headline. But they’re supposed to note that the original article contained an error on the number of phones sold in a quarter, and they fixed that error with the correct statement. It’s as though they want to hide their mistakes. That’s not proper journalism.
