Its the story of how Apple products, and many other goods consumed by Americans, are made by hand in what is the equivalent of a human sweatshop in Shenzhen, China. In the last week I've been reading CNN's Inside Foxconn coverage, and the New York Times published a story last week about the human cost of iPads.
No amount of irony was lost on me that I listened to the story on my iPhone. The whole thing is horrifying, fascinating and rife with opportunity to question my consuming ways.
