Irene Merayo Urbano's opinion on the video about apple's factory in china
1. I have been very impressed about the video. I was specially surprised when I saw the
“suicide nets”. I don’t want to imagine what can have happened so that it’s needed to have
them. Also, think this is a topic that is not spoken about enough. It’s like the “dark side”of
many big companies. I found out about this not a very long time ago, and I’m sure many of
the clothes we buy nowadays are produced in a very similar way as these Apple products:
by very young people that have no other choice than working in a very precarious situation,
for too many hours without a break and not gaining enough money to buy basic necessities
for them or their families. I hope this changes sometimes, but as we never see these things
on TV or newspapers, I’m afraid it won’t for now, because it’s a problem that I think everyone
tries to “hide”, or not give it the importance it has.
