I'm talking for example about Apple relying on child labor in China for cheap labour, being directly responsible for suicides in the factories of their Chinese partners, them sabotaging their clients phones to make them slower.

Not only limited to apply but also others like Facebook, Google,... Ideally the information should be presented in a simple and easy to get format.

Man, people are still referencing that terrible 2016 iPhone 6 battery performance update that was in the wild for 6 weeks.

You call it battery performance update just as Apple stated, others call it deliberately slowing down their phone.

slowing down their phone [to prevent it from literally shutting down due to overdrawing an old battery]

To be fair, they didn't actually say that what the others called it was smart or correct, just that they did call it that. But given nuance can be deduced from people's words, I think we can both assume that the person you're engaging with isn't playing with a full deck of cards...

It's like people still hating on Sony for their music division's CD rootkit scandal from... 2005 I think?

And people hating on nestle for capitalizing on pregnant mothers - like we exist to give them money, why can't we start acting like it
