STOP calling me a liar when it is clear that you didn't even look at the links I provided. Stick to your preconceived notion at your peril.

It would be a big help if YOU looked at the link YOU provided and see that it shot YOUR CLAIM down instead of attacking people who called you exactly what you are. You did not even bother to check what you posted. The article you linked states exactly the OPPOSITE of what you claim. . . and then you keep repeating your FALSE CLAIM. . . and arguing that you did not. Try checking the facts before you attack people who are trying to tell you the truth who actually DO know the truth.

I did.

I was not the one told to stay off the thread. . . and have all my posts deleted. I’m not going to respond to you again.

Correction: “No one in the Apple Cult Cares.”

Swordmaker;”This quotation taken FROM the article YOU linked to shows your statement is ENTIRELY FALSE!”

Exactly the point none of the Apple cult save you actually looked at the link I deliberately posted. They took to name calling and insults, and instant defense of the cult(actually one of the attributes of a cult).

Under age in the US is under 18. China it is 16, so once again you missed the point.

I know the truth and if you had read my post closely instead of getting you back up you would of seem the point.

Now that even you have denigrated into the pit of name calling and insults I am done now being polite to the Apple Cult.

Actually I have looked at the link you posted, it has been posted numerous times before, and discredited numerous times before.

Do you have a reading disorder? Go back and read what Swormaker said about the link. You Cultists need to get your stories straight.

This same story has been posted so many times on FR, it's the same thing rehashed again and again.

“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”

And two days later, magically restored. Have we turned to 1st amendment principles?

You don't know what you are talking about. FoxConn employees are 18 to 32. You can have an opinion, but the facts are the facts.

They already knew it was a false assertion. There was no need to. We've been seeing this claim for years and it was false when it was made, and false now. Why bother?

I saw what you had linked was from the link itself without having to go to it. I was quite familiar with that article on Quartz. I've posed it several times on FreeRepublic to counter and rebut others who have made the same claim you did. The only reason I even had to go to it was to copy the response i wanted to use to shoot down your claims.

I already knew what was in your link, mad_as_he$$, and I knew your claim was not true. Your claim has been debunked numerous times by various real journalists and real labor organizations that have really investigated. YOU prefer to believe the FUD propaganda and you promulgate it without bothering to research it. I find it hilarious that you linked to an article containing the truth to try and back up your false claim. It's not often that someone hoists themselves on their own petard so conveniently or so thoroughly. . . but you did.

By the way, you did not deliberately post that at all. Nice try. . . and you've never been polite in Apple threads.

I already don't miss appointments, I don't need a watch to tell me I haven't exercised today, I don't need to check the weather every hour, I don't need to listen to music every waking moment of the day, I can walk a few steps to answer the phone (that burns calories too), I don't take "selfies", my life doesn't revolve around "social media", emails will still be in my inbox even if I don't see them the second they arrive and I have voice-mail so I don't need to answer the phone the second telemarketers call.

Checking my messages (passively or actively) during dinner is rude and only something ill-behaved pre-teens do, and if my immediate response to every late-breaking news event (like Justin Bieber getting arrested) was so vital then I would have assistants fielding my messages for me. I don't need to prove to anyone that I'm "hip" and I really don't need another gadget that needs to be charged daily and upgraded every year or two. Last but not least, I'm not gay.

So? There are thousands of products you don’t need so you don’t buy them. You are not an Apple user either. Why even comment?

Sorry... didn't realize this thread was restricted to only those who have positive feelings about smart watches and stuff like that. Feel free to disregard my comment if it'll make you sleep better.

No, you’ve never had a positive thought about anything Apple. It is you I disregard.

My comments really weren't Apple specific, as they didn't come up with the Smart watch idea and plenty of others were already on the market long before Apple copied the idea.

My comments were more on the idea in general of a Smart watch... and about how I don't need something like that in my life.

Dull sword maker made it clear at the beginning of this thread that anything other than Apple accolades would not be tolerated. I surprised you haven’t been sic’ed upon by the apple gestapo for not falling into line and doing a sieg heil.
