Who would believe that the biggest gadget maker has a skeleton hidden somewhere which made their success reach and shoot sky high? If you’re thinking that Apple Macintosh is doing all the good stuff, think again! Apple is outsourcing the assembling part or shall I say the manufacturing part to a 3rd party company and we know the main reason why right? It’s plainly to cut on cost! Apple admits that they were actually aware that these 3rd party companies responsible for putting their iPod and Mac notebooks or laptops together is indeed letting under aged people work for them.
These are one of the very common scenarios in countries struggling their way to earn a living. It’s devastating to know that this company is earning billions of dollars can’t even play fair in terms of running a business. They still took advantage of those people who is more than desperate to earn money and will do anything just to get paid for a job even if it’s ‘over worked underpaid type’ of scheme. Now that people and critics has been speculating on Apple about this inhumane treatment that is being applied to laborers all over Asia that’s responsible for the iPod and iPhone you own now!
If you think that child labor is the only law that these companies have committed we are all dead wrong. Apple has been stoned because they chose to partner with manufacturing companies that treats their workers badly and even how hard we escape the fact that Apple may not be aware of these malpractice we still can’t help but entertain that it’s impossible that Apple is clueless of these incidents.
Just think of all the people working for these companies to bring you a better gadget, but behind that iPhone or Mac Air device a lot of teens and laborers are being abused physically and worst emotionally. No wonder there has been reported casualties from some of the manufacturing companies of Apple. Knowing these facts, will you still support and patronize the company’s products? If you know that for each gadget produce ten laborers suffer from bad treatment would you still buy Apple’s products? Just a thought…

It's called being a conscientious consumer, and we can't just blacklist Apple for following these practices. Everyone does, and there really is no way to influence them other than boycotting, which is a rather pointless exercise considering the size of the market.
