i guess the interns forgot to put the secret sauce in the wii u also?

also what does field of study got to do with assembling electronics? most factory works probably don't even have a higher education hence why they don't protest working for small money.

also if this is true Sony is responsible for it. It is their product, they should make sure conditions are reasonable to ensure their products are made correctly instead of trun a blind eye to save a few dollars.


NO. Foxcon is responsible for it. If it's true. And foxcon will have to pay sony for every damage systems not to mention any thing else that might be in the contract that sony could nail them for. 

No Sony is responsible, it is their brand image under risk here not foxcon. If you want to protect your brand image you ensure all your contractors you higher are work for you not against you.

Even if this wasn't purposely done, as in the Foxconn worker just messed up and broke a thousand ps4's, Sony would still have a case. That's how the law works. And that isn't even what happened here- this guy admitted to doing this on purpose to damage Sony and Foxconn. He (and the other Foxconn workers who participated) had malicious intent to purposely ruin a product Foxconn had hired him to make. If there is a failure because of how the thing was put together - it's on Foxconn.
