Is there a website and keeps track of what bad stuff big tech is responsible for? (lemmy.ml)

I'm talking for example about Apple relying on child labor in China for cheap labour, being directly responsible for suicides in the factories of their Chinese partners, them sabotaging their clients phones to make them slower.

Not only limited to apply but also others like Facebook, Google,... Ideally the information should be presented in a simple and easy to get format.

Re: the Apple labor thing - If you want a list of people who have been exposed to child labor issues, a good shorthand is just to search for a list of Foxconn’s clients.

Sadly, it’s just about every major tech company under the sun. Not just Apple. It’s Sony, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Nintendo, Dell, Levano, HP, Cisco, Intel, Moto, etc.

And even if they are not a direct client of Foxconn, Foxconn makes electrical components that can be found in literally every PC made in the last decade. So there is no way around that company.
