This is my true-crime-podcast of an account dedicated to my whistleblower legal battle with my ex-employer, Apple Computer

Ask me about Apple's neglected offices on dangerous toxic waste dumps; Apple's secret silicon fab exhausting metric tons of solvents & lethal gases in the middle of dense residential neighborhoods; & how Apple fired me after I learned about it & complained to the US gov.

🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, in 2023, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into the apartment windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off the US EPA, who sent their env cops to raid Apple's plant in Aug of 2023. The US EPA finally released the report of their enforcement inspections & sent me a copy on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

US EPA Enforcement & Compliance conducted 3 onsite inspections of Apple's fab facility in 8/2023 + 1/2024. US EPA noted at least 19 potential violations of the RCRA hazardous waste statute.

I just posted US EPA's report for public access. Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/312oqvretg7yyhfx0ohx4/AGZduVXs0_1geqIyi0NA9nE?rlkey=3aa2tw15ek3trqlbdh7pw9erh&st=e7pg1cpp&dl=0

After discovering what Apple did, I then spent three months requesting records & digging through regulatory filings to learn more - which led me to file a complaint to US EPA in June 2023. I met with EPA's investigators & sent them everything I discovered.

I told EPA I didn't want my whistleblowing to be anonymous, and instead, that if EPA shows up to inspect the plant, when they do, please have the EPA cops tell Apple: "Ashley says hi." 💀

If Apple is using unethical / illegal data to train its AI models, it'd be cool if an Apple employee tried to make that public... 🦃
