The sad fact, is as a consumer we’re not protected from such draconian downright middle-aged fuckery with the transparency of who ultimately makes your gismo.
Like food ingredients, every consumer item should clearly include the underlying manufacturer. Then as consumers we can then choose when it comes to purchasing and selectively have an impact by boycotting these companies.
Hon Hai Precision the parent company manufactures ~40% of all consumer electronics that make choice for certain products alternative (if ethically better) difficult. Hon Hai are on my DO NOT BUY.

regulated capitalism
i feel as though the problem would continue because consumers prefer the slave wage special
just make it illegal to import electronics see how long these issues last
