Something like this is simply unacceptable.
Why is there no public outrage towards Apple? We are all so willing to publicly denounce Nike, Nestle and co., yet no one wants to raise a word against Apple?
This may be because of the 250 million strong general strike and the farmer strike that has hit India in the last weeks (https://www.deccanherald.com/national/at-least-25-crore-work...). There has been almost zero reporting in Western media about that one, the only thing that drew a tiny bit of attention were the Apple riots.
Under normal circumstances I guess there would be many reports about what's going on, but media conglomerates don't want to give the population the idea that general strikes and riots work.
We need decoupling of media ownership and society's rich/elites, fast.
Tweeting about it won’t do a thing. Buying an alternative brand phone won’t do a thing either because they all come from the same places. This wasn’t an Apple factory, it was just a generic electronics factory that probably produces a large chunk of the stuff you have regardless of brand.
