And Apple vehemently denies that they aren't doing enough. I've watched the hour long video and it's clear that it sucks to do this work, it's a bit thin to claim that Apple should have all the responsibility for the way these businesses are run, especially in oppressive regimes....

People need to wake up...If they think even one company is immune to "illegally mined product", they have their head stuck in the sand, coming out another hole that goes straight in their ass.The American 40hr work week is not the worldwide standard...shocking as that is.The company I work for has factories worldwide. Their mission statement echoes Apple's. "We" use probably 100 times the metal Apple does. Trying to refuse buying metal from non-approved mining areas is futile.
