Outsourcing your slavery dosen’t make it any better.
Some would argue that this is precisely why they ‘outsource’ just like mobsters do. It gives plausible deniability.
Absolutely, ignorance is tantamount to complicity. Especially since BYD will earn a profit on their slave labor.
The site is not yet in operation. That has nothing to do with outsourcing… Its maybe bad supervision, but honestly most manufacturers fall in that category
The slave labor is building the site.
It’s not “outsourcing” in the common use of the term, but it’s establishing plausible deniability between the brand and the practice, which is “outsourcing” in an ironic sense.
That said, I find the deniability completely implausible. BYD would be intimately aware of the progress and happenings on that site.
