"Making companies responsible for unpaid taxes that slip through the cracks is unfair to them. It also gives resellers more incentive to take advantage of the system." 🤣 There was no "slipping through the cracks". Apple was aware and complicit. newsbytesapp.com/news/business/…

Apple management and staff knowingly sold Apple products TAX FREE to foreign nationals that were living in Japan. They did this daily. For at least four years.

🧵5/5 We have enough evidence to fill a book, and we will cut a deal with anyone that wants to publish it, so that we can fund our upcoming lawsuits against the company. DMs are open. Solidarity. #AppleTogether #1U

🧵4/5 Managers, HR, Business compliance ALL knew that it was going on, they knew that what they were doing was illegal, and they did it anyway; dancing around plausible deniability with their pretty Lominger positioning skills.

🧵3/5 My friends, this wasn't a one time thing, this was a nearly daily occurrence, that went on all day, every day, simultaneously in multiple stores for about four YEARS. This was so coordinated and organized, we had to learn new Japanese vocab to explain it.

🧵2/5 “Bulk purchases of iPhones by foreign shoppers were discovered at some Apple stores, a source said,” Nikkei reports. “At least one transaction involved an individual buying hundreds of handsets at once, suggesting that the store missed taxing a possible reseller.” 🤣 Please

🧵1/5 Lawsuits and lawyers cost money, so we are going to do some fundraising. Who would like exclusive rights to the story behind the largest tax scam penalty issued in the history of Japan? Articles like this don't even scratch the surface of reality. 9to5mac.com/2022/12/26/app…

they preferred to part ways with me, rather than help me stay employed, which I've been asking for from the beginning. So I just received my dismissal letter because I am now disabled. Where is the company that puts diversity, inclusion and disability at the heart of its 2/
