    Reminds me of Minamata, Japanese company was dumping mercury into the nearby lakes and hushing everything up. Movie is great BTW, thank fk I don't live near a chemical plant.

    Apple started to clean up only after getting tipped off of an EPA raid. They also didn't test or analyse chemicals. And conveniently stopped having weekly inspections. Truly a case of ignorance is bliss. Huh, toxic what now? No no it's NOT toxic, we marked it as non hazardous so it's OK.
