But what’s the alternative? It is a big deal for me how these companies exploit workers. But it’s not just apple it’s all of them, what choice do we consumers have here?
Well, maybe. I’ve been taking a look at them since I’m gonna have to replace my phone most likely later this year (perhaps even next year🤞🏻) but I don’t think I can go back to a non-water proof one and be skipping a heartbeat every time a drop splashes in the general direction of my device.
The repairable design, 7 years of updates and (I think) 5 years warranty are unbeatable tho.
But for the exploited workers matter I’m gonna need more proof than a couple pictures of smiling Asian people to really believe there’s no exploitation.
Not purchasing luxury goods is an option. I have more sympathy for goods you’re essentially forced to buy to stay alive that still exploit others and probably yourself
I don’t know where or how do you live but for me and most people having a smartphone is a necessity more than a luxury. I did try to go no-smart and it’s just not an option, and that was a bunch of years ago

Fairphone maybe?
