I read an article in The New York Times by Charles Duhigg and David Barboza. This article is taking about how iphones, iPads, and other devices that are builded by Apple is often labor in harsh conditions. It also said that the Apple companies work environment are serious, sometimes deadly and has safety problems. For example the article started out with a story of Lai Xiaodong who got scrubbed by heat and violence untill a mat of red and black had replaced his mouth and nose because a fire had started (coming from inside where the products were) at the apple factory that he was working. Lai Xiaodong was lucky but two other workers were immediately die, and dozen other hurt. The article also said that apple is not the only company that has a troubling supply system there are others like Dell, Hewlett-Packard, I.B.M,and a lot more.
I think that this article is very interesting because it talks about the disadvantage of having a apple ipad, ipone and other devices from apple. I also think that this article is a good article for me and other people who will buy devices from apple, and other companies.
