I've been preparing for upcoming Gjovik v Apple lawsuit deadlines. I'll be working on all this through the weekend too. Upcoming: - 7/8: Meet/confer with Apple's lawyers part 2 - 7/9: Joint Case Mgmt statement & initial disclosures due - 7/16: 1st Case Mgmt Conference The Conf is open to the public!

This year's SF LaborFest schedule was just announced & I'll be speaking on July 23rd about Silicon Valley toxic waste dumps, public health, worker safety, & my lawsuit against Apple Computer over Apple's toxic business practices. laborfest.net/event/silico...

Events for July 2024 – LaborFest 2024laborfest.net Apple in silicon valley had an office built on a toxic dump site and workers were getting sick from the fumes. When Apple's senior engineering program manager reported it to Apple, they refused to tak...

There's a Part Three. Let me know when you're ready.

🧵 I’m sorry to do this to you, but there’s a Part 2. I waited to share this part because I worried most of you'd not be able to handle all of this at once. But you’ve had a week to recover, so let’s dive into how Apple execs are giving themselves bonuses as a reward for illegal dumping! ⬇️

I love how many of you have been buying me red pens!! Not any kind of pen -- only red pens. Assumably for correcting all of Apple's lies.❤️ 🖊️ 💀 🔥

Appleが住宅地に極秘シリコン実験施設を作り違法な廃棄物処理を行ったせいで近隣住民に健康被害が出ていたことが明らかに https://gigazine.net/news/20240625-apple-secret-silicon-fab-illegal-waste-disposal/

Appleが住宅地に極秘シリコン実験施設を作り違法な廃棄物処理を行ったせいで近隣住民に健康被害が出ていたことが明らかにgigazine.net 2020年に自宅で謎の工業用化学物質にさらされて生死をさまよったというアシュリー・M・ジョヴィック氏が、アメリカの環境保護庁(EPA)に通報して調査を行ったところ、自宅の隣にAppleが建設した極秘のシリコン実験施設から排出された化学物質が原因だったことが判明したと報告しています。

Before I moved out of the apartment next to Apple's stealth semiconductor fab, I set up a tVOC (chemical vapor/gases) monitor that recorded a week of data for export. (below) It didn't make any sense at the time, because it looked like air pollution from an automated mechanical exhaust system....

🍎 🛢️ ☠️

🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into our windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off US EPA, who then raided them in 2023. EPA sent me the report on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

I just saw how many tags my most recent civil decision got in the case systems. I have to assume Apple's not very happy about this.... It's a few, but its not my fault Apple violated so many laws. casetext.com/case/gjovik-...

After five years and over 100 violations, Tesla's Fremont factory has been ordered to abate illegal pollution by the local regulator! I've been reporting about this since 2019, a story nobody else wanted to touch, and was beginning to believe nothing would ever happen! apnews.com/article/tesl...

Over the last few days, an incredible amount of time & effort was devoted to smearing me & sowing doubt about the danger of Apple's toxic waste. I can't think of a better sociopathy test than if someone would happily assist & facilitate a dystopian mega-corporation in poisoning thousands of people.

Not to be That Guy, but I put out the warning about this back in 2022. I only had docs then that showed part of the problem with PCE, far from the whole picture, but literally nobody reported on this. Also, these were PUBLIC DOCS POSTED ONLINE. Not exactly All The President's Men shit.

BREAKING: Tesla did a whoopsie at their Fremont factory and polluted a bunch of water (pretty bad) and they can't keep it contained to their property. Levels of major pollutants massively over what's legal. Huge mess, no surprise. Link below is to a PDF. www.envirostor.dtsc.ca.gov/getfile?file...

I was just reminded that federal lawsuits have RSS feeds You can subscribe to the RSS feed for filings in my RICO / whistleblower / environmental-crimes lawsuit against Apple Computer here: courtlistener.com/docket/67772... Case: Gjovik v Apple Inc, 3:23-cv-04597, US District Court, SF NorCal

Apple has to file a public response to my whistleblower/RICO lawsuit today No matter what they do, I won this battle I forced Apple to have to respond & engage I feel proud I fought so hard It's like there was a rabid raccoon in my garage, & I finally trapped it in the back corner with a broom

Apple finally responded on Thursday. I've been conferring with Apple's lawyers over the last two days. This is the first formal, direct response from Apple about my whistleblower cases since Apple sent me a letter of termination on September 9 2021. We're off to the races!

Today is the 2yr anniversary of Apple violently firing me shortly before I was to testify to US government about Apple's misdeeds My 2yr statute of limitations wld be up for some civil claims I'm still waiting on the gov labor cases, so, I filed a civil lawsuit this week! gjovik.co/wp-content/u...

US labor, whistleblower, and environmental laws are a ship that works better when you kick it. I've given up the government agencies doing anything in a timely fashion or at all. Instead, now I'm suing Apple for violating the RICO Act. appleinsider.com/articles/23/...

Apple faces RICO lawsuit from ex employee whistleblowerappleinsider.com An Apple whistleblower has filed a RICO Act lawsuit against the company, in a bid to get the iPhone maker to answer accusations of retaliation against the former employee.

Between the RICO case I filed against Apple this week & the recent news about Apple's other felonious misadventures I decided it all deserves a dedicated article Check out my latest Big Tech Politics article: "Apple Corporate Crime Update" ashleygjovik.substack.com/p/apple-corp...

Apple Corporate Crime Updateashleygjovik.substack.com Summary of recent white collar crime charges and complaints against Apple Computer

Two years ago today... Government: "How did your employer (Apple Computer) know about the protected right you exercised?" Me: "I kept saying, 'Stop it, you guys. There's Labor laws about this.'"

"Inventors have accused Apple of stealing technology for decades, but until recently, most have been dismissed by the public, or bullied by threats of legal and financial ruin from Apple." https://thehill.com/opinion/technology/4158989-apples-anti-competitive-tactics-must-be-stopped/
