NYT reposts Foxconn story in China, to different reaction

“If the story is simply blaming Apple and Foxconn,” wrote a user on the Chinese social site Weibo.com, “then it is simplifying the problem. Other companies including HTC, Lenovo, HP and Sony and their OEM [subsidiaries] … share the same situation,” adding that OEM factory workers are often “working in even harsher environments and having more overtime” than Foxconn workers. The user also pointed out that labor organizations are scarce, and that the government tends to shield the companies due to their high profits.
