My guess is it is because Apple bills itself as the progressive darling, whereas MS and Samsung stay out of politics. Does Google even have anything manufactured anymore? They don't own the Motorola Mobility division anymore, so all I can think of is Chromecasts. When Google was making cell phones, they were assembled in the US, not China, so it doesn't make much sense to talk about the working conditions of Chinese factories there. With a bit of Googling (LOL), I discover that the Chromecast was made in China, but no idea who.
Also, Apple was very vocal not too long ago about fixing factory conditions after Foxconn was having issues, so they made some attempts to correct the problems, but now are causing worse ones. Is there any indication that the other companies you mention had any of these labor issues and failed to put pressure on the manufacturer to correct the issues?
Admitting to the fact that the species is in danger of extinction is not a nutter thing. Constantly ranting against space nutters, is a nutter activity though.
No, it says that I prefer my anonymity over the possibility of idiots like you harassing me in real life. You would know all about that, wouldn't you APK?
Um, it is spam, you posted it 3 times because you were down modded. That is spamming, and it is spam also because you are advertising a commercial product when people are not requesting your advertisement. Spam is defined as "Unsolicited commercial advertisement", so can you show how your posts are not spam? Spam can also be the process of sending numerous duplicate messages, which is also what you are doing here, how is this series of posts not spam?
Have you figured out a addon for Chrome we can run to filter out your garbage yet?
Look, no matter how many times you try to claim I do it, I don't use your tactics. I don't need to post as a third party to thrash you, I do it as Coren22, and nothing else. Also, as I don't have other accounts, saying that I down modded your posts is silly, you get down mods because you are a terrible poster, not because I am on some campaign to discredit you (which you do quite well on your own).
There is no conspiracy, so stop with the conspiracy theories. People rightfully downmod your posts as you: 1. spam 2. post off topic 3. troll constantly 4. don't actually offer anything constructive to the conversation.
So, as all you ever do APK is post as AC, and post as AC "concerned third party", where do you even come off complaining about what I might be doing? You don't actually improve the comment sections when you "contribute", you just spam it with your crap about hosts like it is the best thing evar!
Keep up the campaign of spamming and stalking APK, no one thinks this isn't you.
Like anyone thinks this is some concerned third party, APK?
I know you are in love with me and all, but stalking me all over Slashdot, and trying to get me to out who I am is no way to get with me. I'm not interested in you, so get over it man.
It is ok, patents expire after 14 years, so we will be all good for everything that we built, since they are 1000's of years our elders, we aren't using anything they still have a patent on. Copyright is only life +90 years, so that will also have expired long ago.
Also, we must make the extrajudicial no-fly list also take away your constitutional right to own firearms, we can't have the suspected terrorists arming themselves, it will be anarchy!
Funny, I don't see myself as unable to take it, I am just pointing out that you are trying to fault me for something you do all the time. Perhaps you just hate yourself?
Funny, isn't that exactly what you are doing APK? Libeling me, stalking me, harassing me, and trolling with off-topic crap. Yup, you have perfected the thing that you demonize.
Says the person who uses AC to post as a third party agreeing with himself, and AC so that no one can look up your history, like you enjoy doing to your targets.
Says APK, the coward who posts off topic all the time, trolls and stalks me across all of Slashdot, and accuses me of lying when I have quite honestly told you I won't give you the ability to harass me in real life like you do here by telling you who I am.

As a product of the US public school system that led you to think of dingos and kangaraoos, neither of which is in Australia, Europe,
I have never heard of Australia, Europe, could you point to it on a map for me?

Meanwhile, in the US, this technology was invented around 50 years ago.

Do the math, I don't know off the top of my head who participates in ESA, but likely they earned more medals than the US.

"narcissistic sociopath"
I was wondering who you were talking about until I got to "he". You know, Hillary isn't a man right?
Bernie Sanders was pretty left, though not as left as Europe, he was left for the US.
You do realize that spamming the same message won't get you noticed more don't you?
Also, since I have technically disproved numerous parts of your spam, does that mean you have to change your spam?
APK, Coren22 doesn't talk in the third person like he thinks he is a king. Perhaps you should learn how to use "I".
Funny, I don't see myself as unable to take it, I am just pointing out that you are trying to fault me for something you do all the time. Perhaps you just hate yourself?
Really, a Slashdot search shows you are exactly what you say I am.

Funny, who is the fake name here?
See, the thing is, all of that seems to apply to you APK, so I am not sure what you are trying to say.

Not as long as I lurked. I used to read back in 98, but didn't get an account until Nov 2009 (according to my 5 year achievement).
