I also agree that Apple is acting unethically and irresponsible. They exploit workers to the utmost, and it is true that many corporations do it as well, nonetheless Apple is a leading corporation in innovative technology; therefore, they should behave more responsibly. I believe that organizations, such as RAN, will undoubtedly put a stop to Apple’s improper practice. Furthermore, I assume Apple cares about its workers, but they prioritize their customers, and therefore they feel a lot of pressure to come out with new products that will satisfy their customers. In order to do that, they must also manufacture an enormous amount of products.…

Apple proves that being secretive holds power. The success of using the tactic of withholding information from consumers has been proven time and time again to phenomenally increase sales each time their product hits the stores (Kinicki & Williams, 2013). Whenever Apple comes out with new product people are filled with a strong desire to want to know what was made they scramble to stores to buy its latest gadget (Eadicicco, 2014). The power of secrecy is a good marketing strategy for Apple; they do not spend vast amounts of money like its competitors did on advertising. The business strategy's goal was to create mystery about their product line which results in massive crowds at retail stores and the end results equals high profits for Apple.…

Taylor Swift's claim on how it is unfair to ask people to work and not pay them is remarkably effective. The reasons why Swift’s letter to Apple was effective is because in the beginning of the letter she does not start bashing the company the she is at a disagreement with. Swift instead praises and acknowledges how not only innovating the company is but also how they have created new ways for her to connect with her fans.

She then goes on to explain how she's not writing this letter in regardings to her not getting paid.…
