Foxconn’s Lies

The Truth of the Apple iPad Behind Foxconn’s Lies

In 2010, Foxconn was under the spotlight of the media due to the suicide tragedies. At least 18 workers committed suicides and 3 survived. One year on from the spate of suicides..

They are exposed to chemicals aluminium dust but do not have adequate protection..

After watching this video, what are you reactions?
