Apple customers know the supply chain is supported by coerced labor and they don't care. I mean...look no further than HN...everyone here has seen the stories, and you are all still buying iPhones.

What about the device you’re writing this from? I bet it was assembled by the same kind of labor. This isn’t limited to “Apple customers”, so don’t act like it is.

It’s currently impossible to buy a good performing smartphone that has been ethically manufactured.

Close to impossible but not entirely. There is Fairphone: https://www.fairphone.com/

I did know about fairphone, but sadly its hardware really holds it back.

Would you please stop posting unsubstantive and/or flamebait comments to HN? You've been doing a lot of this, and it's not what this site is for.
