Foxconn employee commits suicide over iphone.

After a Foxconn employee allegedly committed suicide when an iPhone prototype vanished, an official with the Chinese manufacturing company said the former employee had demonstrated a pattern of suspiciously losing products.

Found this on digg, and thought it was rather odd that this person allegedly killed himself after being investigated for stealing a possible new generation of iphone.

Yep, that would be quite a burdon to have to live with......they are a proud people

Even if they are prideful, something just doesn't sit right with me on this one. Especially after them talking about how friends of his said he was subject to "unbearable interrogation techniques". Over a phone? WTF is wrong with these people.

I dunno, this one just kinda irks me in the wrong way.
