Apple, oh Apple
Again, I don't know if anyone remembers, but a few months back, the Mail on Sunday reported on shocking working conditions at (at least) one iPod manufacturing plant in China. Well, Apple have conducted their own investigation, and it seems that they've cleared themselves of almost all blame (I could say it was a "whitewash" but that would be a very bad pun).
They have conceded that "35% of the time, staff worked over 60 hours a week, and 25% of the time more than six days consecutively", but that's about it, so the whole thing sounds a bit too good to be true.
I'm sure everyone will make their own judgements. (Particularly the Apple fanboys and bum-lovers.)
