Apple tin
"In 2013 many tech companies admitted to purchasing tin, used in soldering virtually every electronic device, from unregulated mines in Indonesia. Apple however refused to disclose where it sources its tin, even after Friends of the Earth, an international network of environmental organizations, mobilized 25,000 people to write to the company in protest. Use of unlawful labor extends into China where reports from SACOM and China Labor Watch document deplorable working conditions, including 100-hour workweeks, high levels of underage student labor, and unlivable wages—even though Apple had joined the Fair Labor Association in 2012."
Buy an Apple, get surveyed
"iBeacon, a new feature in iOS 7 that Apple claims acts as a “personal shopper,” went live in early December. The app guides i-device toting Apple Store customers to products, and updates employees on customer orders. The app uses push technology to let iPhone customers know if they are eligible for an upgrade while they browse in the store.
The technology is poised to be deployed by retailers all over the world, requiring only an iPad or iPhone with iOS 7 to serve as an iBeacon device within a store. TechCrunch reports that as many as 190 million iOS devices are iBeacon-ready, and this number will swell to over 250 million soon. An Android version is in development.
The scale of this consumerist technology is unsettling, as is its surveillance function. While Apple has taken a public stance against the widespread digital surveillance of the PRISM program, despite its historical compliance with it, the company clearly has no moral qualms about using surveillance technology for its own profit."

So sorry for not "researching" InfoWars for my sole source of bullshit.
What does a chronically unemployed racist know about reality? Try not to overextend you use of cliches - they only serve to demonstrate your lack of education and ignorance.
Yet you replied. Tell me, does irony go hand-in-hand with racism? I'm honored you take the F A T dick out of your mouth long enough to test your lack of grammar skills.
Only if you get cancer.Comment

I predict with Steve Jobs gone, Wall Street will destroy Apple. Steve cared about the company. Wall Street just cares about money. The lack of caring about actual products and employees will make Apple shit again. The innovation will die and they will just be selling boring and overpriced products.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Hey. We just outsourced slavery and pollution to China. If you buy clothes you support slavery because the textile industry goes to the lowest bidder worldwide. That means people work in shitty and unsafe conditions in places like Bangladesh. I say protest this shit by not wearing any clothes at all.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Hello, asshole here. What the hell is wrong with my iPhone? This is the only problem I've had with my 2 year old iPhone. I also have a LG G2 Verizon 4G LTE whatever the hell that is.
