This time, it's true. Foxconn, the major Chinese contractor making iPhones and
other consumer electronic devices, advertised for workers to come to
Zhengzhou to assemble the iPhone 14. As workers quit other jobs to come
to the Foxconn factory, they learned that the pay advertised was not
what they'd get paid in reality.

Foxconn lied.

Police are beating protestors.

Video of the incident was posted on line where the world can see.

taking advantage of the poor countries. EV batteries are the same
issue.
