No real info there, other than that the contractor has clients from lots of tech companies, the Apple contractor says no surveillance equipment was added, and Apple is against it. It is in Columbia. The simplest explanation is that it's a misunderstanding, or something to do with their laws and trying to allow zoom calls and the like, instead of constant always on monitoring as the article slightly implies. But really, without a lot more information, it's just speculation which often gets skewed quickly depending on if you think the company is good in spirit, or evil. You never know with a contract company, especially based in a different country where laws and norms might be entirely different than in the US. But with how Apple has improved treatment of employees at suppliers and contract companies all over the world, and that they responded against this, I feel Apple continues to do the right thing.

My value-add contribution for the day Were you out in the jungle looking for the billions in cash buried in the hinterland? Guess I need to go back and check that out. Spent almost all of the time in Cartagena which is a magical place. Really hope to go back soon.

My value-add contribution for the day Wow, now we know how to get a few posts here FWIW, the AppleInsider link which I quoted from has it wrong too. The story at NBC has it correct, and more info. It's lengthy, and I'm too tired after a long day of trail work, but if someone reads it and gets the details, please summarize.
