That makes no sense.

Someone called you out on a ridiculous argument and showed you that most major tech companies use the same Chinese manufacturer, and, caught with your pants down all you can do is say those companies "don't have the same self-righteousness of Apple"?

Apple is only "self righteous" because you happen to think so. It's your opinion. I happen to think that many of the companies on that list are "self righteous".

Therefore cj1976, that must mean that you too "act holy-as-thou, but neglect to consider the real cost of your favorite company's shiny new gadgets".

Just going with your logic here and the fact that whatever tech device you might have was probably made at the Foxcomm factory in China.

Welcome to irony.

Just my opinion? I don't think I'm alone on that one. Ask the audience and see what they say..

So we should ask the audience if Apple is the only company, on the long list of companies using Foxcomm, that deserves criticism for doing so, simply because you think Apple is "self-righteous"?

Sure. Raise your hand if you follow cj1976's logic.

I wouldn't put much faith in the audience, eating up all of these biased, spiteful 'news stories'.
