Apple, Google, Microsoft, Dell and Tesla are sued over alleged child labor in the Congo

I talked about this before about US tech companies including Bill Gates's foundation but here it is

 

[The Minister Of Culture]

Filthy cacs they want that damn coltan and dont give a damn what happens to get it.if i recall the Congo has the largest amount of it on the earth.

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

America is directly responsible for the status of the congo

Directly interfering in the actions of a sovereign nation...

THE C.I.A. AND LUMUMBA

So that they could keep raping the second largest rainforest in the world for cheap resources. A country with 80 percent supply of the world's coltan a resource found in every cellphone should be rich and have well to do citizens.

So before they sue all these companies the Congo needs to have America answer for killing its best hope early and making sure their countries progress was derailed.

That's way more important than the chump change they can get from lawsuits. Congo deserves restitution

However, the Republic of the Congo is not the only one to suffer, as similar struggles can be observed across all of the central African states, including the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Central African Republic. It turned out that at least 64% of all discovered world reserves of Cobalt are shared among the above mentioned states. That’s where the exploitation of minors comes into play, as child labor is a common occurrence around here, as it’s used extensively in the extraction of those minerals.

As it’s been revealed in an extensive research conducted by the Washington Post, Apple happens to be among the ones responsible for those deadly mines. In particular, it states:

The Post traced this cobalt pipeline and, for the first time, showed how cobalt mined in these harsh conditions ends up in popular consumer products. It moves from small-scale Congolese mines to a single Chinese company — Congo DongFang International Mining, part of one of the world’s biggest cobalt producers, Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt — that for years has supplied some of the world’s largest battery makers. They, in turn, have produced the batteries found inside products such as Apple’s iPhones — a finding that calls into question corporate assertions that they are capable of monitoring their supply chains for human rights abuses or child labor.

Thus, you can be confident that every iPhone sold bears a trace of child sweat and blood.

All this shows that the struggle for Africa is just picking up steam, as large corporations are going to stop at nothing in a bid to establish control over the increasingly valuable resource. It’s been reported that intelligence agencies all across the globe started monitoring the use of such words as Europium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Yttrium, Samarium along with other rare earth minerals in an attempt to gain a competitive advantage over other international players.

As the world becomes more and more dependent on high-tech, it’s only natural that the struggle for Africa is going to get much more brutal. And you can be confident that the self-proclaimed “champions of democracy” are going to ride this wave of bloodshed and suffering, just like they usually do.

Agree. Other countries always good try to do you dirty. The question is, do you let them? Apparently so.
