The whole recycling process is the biggest scam around. People keep passing it on from contractors to sub-contractors with legal indemnities, until it reaches someone small enough, in some country where the laws are not stringent. That's all there is to it. Those guys just dump it anywhich place they can like garbage dumps, rivers, seas etc. etc. There isn't a biggest sham around.

If you can make things work in India, then nothing better usually. The human rights issues mostly don't exist, since there is a very strong (some say too strong) labour law. 

The problem in India is usually the local politicians and their agendas (maybe the bane of all democracies). Most companies need to keep "good" relations with whoever in is power, and decent relations even with the opposition local politicians so you don't get stuck in the crossfire.

I am telling from my personal experience. I bought bath towel in Costco made in India. The towel is thick. It looks to be a good deal. However, when I tried it. The water stick on the surface. The towel felt wet. The feeling is very uncomfortable. I returned it. 

So what are you complaining about. You probably just bought the wrong type of towel for your needs.

Made-in-India doesn't mean designed-in-india. Usually the way it works with textiles is that the companies give specifications of the material and the design and they get manufactured (China, Germany, Bangladesh, Vietnam and India are the leaders in textile manufacturing in that order) in these countries. So, you might want to stop buying that brand instead.

Let me tell you how these things work in chinese companies. 

For those uninitiated, Huawei basically copied cisco code and made a competing router and became the largest router company in the world. 

I had a friend working at Huawei a few years ago. They were facing some critical bug in the router code. My friend and rest of the team figured out the issue, and suggested a particular fix. The way it worked is, a only-chinese 'architect' team would have to approve that fix. Two days later they respond back with a different way to fix that issue, and ask the team to implement that. When these folks checked, they found that the bug had been fixed this way at cisco. It seemed like this 'architect' team had some kind of back-channel into the cisco development team (possibly through another chinese developer there), and when required they would just pull up the code and thus stayed in sync.

Its a chinese company, they will send all the private data to chinese govt. Of that we can be sure.
