Maybe you are too young to remember 1997. A big outcry and similar articles appear several times each year since then when some journalists want to write something that is sure to get easy publicity. It has nothing to do with Apple, it is usually labor unions who try to stir up some public sympathy so that they get more concessions in talks with employers in Europe and/or the US. All big corporations have been targeted. The big guys are being watched, they couldn't afford to exploit the workers even if they wanted to (I don't want to imply that they do want to)
