A great company that gives poor people a chance to work. The people against Foxconn are statists that want to control the destiny of the poor.

>>32376596 It is just photoshop. A company who's workers suicide jump down from roof because of bad work conditions, then company makes them sign a paper where they promise not to do a suicide. I would rather pay a little more for my technology than allow this shit.

>>32376734 Well they make them to sign it anyway if they want to work there. They think it will end the suicides. Actually the place is a labour camp.

I can't understand why all these companies using their components allow this labour camp. It is insane. Since they allow this nothing is going to happen. Could think this would be bad reputation for them but everybody just keeps quiet, it seems money is more important. Can't understand.

I bought 2 Foxconn motherboards in 2007 that were like $30, one still works and the other died within a year. I don't know how their quality is today but I personally don't buy their motherboards anymore.
