    It’s sad that anyone would associate Apple with ethics. They clearly haven’t looked into their China factories.

      Just 8 years ago Apple and Google settled a lawsuit where they kept pay for engineers down by having an illegal non-poaching agreement where they agreed to not recruit each others talent.

      They are all bastards.

      I agree. But that seems to be the perception. I mean, it’s easy to imagine Apple taking a stand against antisemitism, but a little more difficult to imagine Samsung or Motorola taking such a stand.

      But as to whether their actual on-the-ground ethical standards are any better than the competition, I rather doubt it.
