Apple Users Petition The Company For The Ethical Treatment Of Workers

Ethical iPhone 5 petitions to be delivered to Apple stores | Apple Talk - CNET News. Several petitions bearing thousands of signatures are being delivered to Apple stores complaining about the treatment of the workers who make the iPhone. The question is whether it will have any impact on Apple. It is highly unlikely that American buyers of Apple products will stop buying them; although, boycotts in protest of worker conditions have long been part of the American history and labor movement. Now, however, it is workers from another country a world away who are being harmed. What do you think? Should Americans boycott products made overseas if there is strong evidence of worker mistreatment?
