Or maybe "suicide + apple factory" gets clicks/comments (like this article/thread), leading apple to install preventative measures to make it look like they're doing something. I seriously would still like to see statistics before jumping to conclusions either way.

We are literally in a comment section of a set of very specific reports detailing the exact problems in the conditions. This is not some hypothetical where we need to “wait for the statistics to compare how many standard deviations about the median these workers are”.

There is very clearly a big problem here. That isn’t click bait.
