As a consumerist society we sure choose slave made e-waste over "fairly sourced" tech like Fairphone. When's the last time we heard a peep from them?
It SHOULD be easier to make an industry of fairly-sourced tech than it is to make an industry of fairly sourced minerals.
But the tech industry makes far far more off of their slave labor than any mining industry, and the average person is far more likely to ignore the guilt of a device they need to use daily than a rock they wear occasionally.
