Even if you aren't wearing something now that was made in China, something in your closet probably was. This documentary introduces you to some of the women who make clothes and the conditions they work under.
Actually, many aren't even women. Some are as young as 14 and work up to 20 hours a day with no overtime. For about 6 cents an hour.
Nothing comes between me and my Levi's except a RFID chip. So be careful where you put and take off your jeans cuz BIG BROTHER will be watching.
I received this Press Release as I subscribe to Spy Chip newsletters.
This RFID stuff bothers me a lot and it should concern you also.
"Make no mistake," McIntyre adds. "Today's RFID inventory tags could
evolve into embedded homing beacons. Unchecked, this technology could
become a Big Brother bonanza and a civil liberties nightmare."
I think it's really, really great that you've developed a line of denim jeans specifically for iPod users. It's so hard carrying those little music machines around without custom made clothing. Now, I can listen to the latest Wheat album without having to stuff my cumbersome iPod into my breast pocket, which I fear makes it look like I have one boob (not good, since I'm a dude!).
Now that you're making high tech RedWire DLX jeans, however, I have a suggestion/request for your company: civil rights dungarees. Maybe as part of your tech line, you could manufacture jeans that prevent unwanted wiretapping of the wearer, either by a metallic lining or an alarm near the fly.
