He said he'd check it out, then silence. I think it's fair to hold someone with the power to actually dig into this with actual resources to account when they say they'll do a thing, inferring interest ... then nothing.
I remember a Microsoft rep said they'll look into it ages ago and so far nothing.
In other words "I really hope you don't remember to follow up on this question"
Nah it finds something it just would rather not share with the world.
yeah like one million Uighurs and other Turkic people incarcerated in brainwashing camps
Shhhhhhhhhh they are providing cheap labour to make our components cheaper.

Well this is pretty fucked up. Surprising no other media outlet is running with it. Guess it isn't sensational enough for them.
Thanks for the bump. It needs to keep being brought up because this is a serious issue. Even if we can't do anything ourselves, awareness is better than nothing.
The most infuriating part is these companies can afford the better working environment, better pay etc. yet for some unholy reason they exploit slave labour instead.
Did jschreier ever give any update on this? Or did he pull a Microsoft?He said he'd check it out, then silence. I think it's fair to hold someone with the power to actually dig into this with actual resources to account when they say they'll do a thing, inferring interest ... then nothing.
Not a peep. There's a book to write and promote instead i suspect
That's extremely disappointing, especially with jschreier usually being at the forefront of writing about problems within the VG industry. I assume slave labour isn't as bad as crunch to some.
The thread being stickied didn't work because the thread title just isn't clickbait-y enough. It's too long which makes it easy to miss. The CP2077 thread sticky title is powerful with its accusation and I notice it almost every time I'm on the home page. But I agree, the onus is not on Era but on the companies exploiting these practices and turning a blind eye.
