  • What safety net? When I visited Shenzhen for work, I saw factory workers in terrible living conditions, and almost no PPE in the factory. Workers were spaced about 3 feet apart on an assembly line, with one worker using compressed air to blow dust and molding flash off a product, wearing eye protection but not hearing protection, and the adjacent working having neither. Another worker flipped over LED shop light fixtures and turned them on. They had sunglasses to protect from the brightness, but the adjacent workers didn’t.

    These products are made from Chinese blood. They are made at the expense of permanently damaging the workers’ bodies, and no government agency is protecting them.









  • Read the article. This is a MacOS problem, not a Logitech problem.

    The main buttons worked fine, only the specially configured extra buttons didn’t work. Those buttons require a configuration program. There’s no evidence this program needed an Internet connection.

    But MacOS blocks all software that doesn’t have an approved certificate. It’s basically the same walled garden as phones. Logitech’s certificate expired.

    It only affected Mac users, and only because of the walled garden.
