New videos show an exodus of workers from Foxconn, the world’s largest iPhone supplier, fleeing a Covid clampdown after an outbreak of cases at the factory. A worker still at the factory tells NBC News they are confined to dormitories when they aren’t on shift.

#iPhone #China #COVID19

Didn't know changing to USB C do this much damage. LOL
Just remember they being slaved just for American Greed..
Just wrongly assemble two phones and they'll kick out themselves
Chinese civilians are groomed to be unquestionably obedient – Herding people like animals with such a draconian policy shows how the CCP rules with an iron hand without an ounce of humanity. It's psychotic.
Great! Put your life before Apple's profits.
Don't forget to buy all your Apple Xmas gifts early this year.
" CHINA'S GOVERNMENT = CONTROL, FEAR, DEATH & NATIONAL dePRESSiON – PERIOD. "
When does the new one come out
Imagine still acting like Covid is real ? Lmfao
Ahh yes, the ethical Apple corporation mass producing their main product with slave wages and conditions in a completely different country
Isn’t this company supposed to be American??!!
Yeeeeaaaahhhhhh I wouldn't be buying an iPhone again if I were yall
The horror. What will people do without the newest phone?
Maybe by the time COVID ban is lifted apple will update their tech to only be like maybe 2020 tech
One camera pixel better than the previous phone and morons gotta rush out and buy it. Sick of our wasteful world.
Apple puts?
This would never happen at the iPhone factory In The DPRK
This world would have been wasted if we did not have Jesus Christ. Oh how we need our great God! Jesus Christ lives! I bear my witness of Him! He is real!
you built China today, for giving money and stolen intellectual properties to swap for cheap labors, China is now unstoppable enemy
I don't agree with the zero COVID policy but however, there are still an average of 3 thousand people dying from COVID every week in the USA
Wtf is the rush to get iPhones that we have been using since 2007. Most iPhones work the same and no need to rush to stores and act like u've never seen it 😂. It's not like they have a new game system, different types of tech, pro cameras, robots and other technology stuff…it's just iPhones, ipad, MacBook and headphones, same basic stuff we see everyday….
They did this on purpose, i bet they're where no covid cases there, the CCP got mad cause of the pull out of apple and the manufacturer being sent to India.
This covid ish again. How nasty can people be the keep catching and spreading "covid."
now we know, iphone users are covid 19 infected
This video may seem to expose the grotesque level of ignorance the average American iPhone user is at but, to different levels, this is the real cost of any phone. No one is going to give up using phones because they saw this. What the Chinese need to do, is advocate for humane working environments.
I pray they never return. 🙏🏾 Stay free.
Interesting. And why would the phone still be an obsession for people? Yuck.
Great news,let’s make them in the USA
China is a strange place
Is this news from planet earth.
That happened maybe 10 days ago.
Wow! Actual news from MSM!
I wonder what NBC has to gain?
Do they have stocks invested in the competition? Probably.
I'm a Samsung person anyway.
I thank god I'm not Chinese.
These companies get what they deserve for shipping all of the jobs in the USA to China. Don’t feel bad for them one tiny bit. 😂😂
You mean they didn’t leave a decade ago when they put anti suicide nets to escape the modern day slave factory? To quote Dave Chappell, “No one is going to pay $6000 for an iPhone.” Just buy one every 5 years like a normal person.
Now robots will replace workers..
Covid = propaganda = stupidity + Brainwash society = fear mongering all just an Illusion!!
Get back to work, slackers!!
For what it's worst, I am still using my 1st gen SE and will until it's far beyond support. I agree, the whole process is pure corporate insanity .
APPLE SUKS
yet the democrats would rather let people die lmao
No. Bring the factories home to America and automate it! No more human factory labor. Apple has the revenue to make this happen. It should be human designed in California and machine made in America.
okay CHINA VIRUS. COULD CARELESS. continue to MAKE MY IPHONE . thanks .
Considering China supplies much of the Worlds products… is this one way for the CCP to further damage the World Economy and at the same time hurt Corporate profits by creating social Chaos and stopping production?…. and what is this about employees LIVING ON SITE IN DORMATORIES 24/7?… modern day slavery?
They are holding lock downs for the same reason Canada and liberal democracies did . To destroy the middle class
Tf goin on in china
