I don’t think the suffering in the creation of an iPhone is in any way comparable to the suffering of sexually abusing children and filming it. And doing that thousands of times.

True enough.

Now, in this specific case is there evidence that this person abused children first hand and|or filmed themselves doing so?

Apparently the court saw no such evidence if they merely charged and found on filesharing.

They're comparable in the same way that 1 year and 50 years are comparable.

Bit of a copout, tbh. I'm gonna assume you don't have a good response for how you somehow aren't culpable for your part in these crimes.

My position is that the crime of economic exploitation and whatnot involved with creating iPhones is nothing like that of child porn.

So it’s like comparing a minute to a year. They’re both units of time.

Also, I’ve bought maybe 10 iPhones in my life. This person has tens of thousands of photos.

It’s not about you and me being culpable for our part in using technology made in China, we obviously are. It’s about that not being relevant to someone with mounds of child porn.
