    Implying Apple cares about that. It’s what they refer to as “the cost of doing business”, if recalling and repairing the phones was cheaper than this they’d have done it.

    If they want to make a statement that companies are expected to do the right thing then they have to levy a fine that actually hurts when they don’t. This won’t do that.

      Idk why you got downvoted, you’re right, apple is literally one of the wealthiest companies in the world, this is nothing to them

      Even if it is “the cost of doing business” it makes doing business this way slightly more expensive and unpredictable.

      Will it be enough to make apple change? Maybe not, but the sum of all the trials push them towards more sustainable solutions.
