卑鄙叛徒or正义使者
Have you ever noticed that after about 6 months your perfectly new $1,000 dollar smartphone begins to slow down?
你有没有注意到，大约6个月后，价值1000美元的全新智能手机也会开始变慢?
What if I told you that it’s a sales tactic that pretty much all phone companies use to force people into buying new phones?
如果我告诉你这是一种销售策略，几乎所有的电话公司都用它来强迫人们购买新手机，那会怎么样?
And that all of this is somehow completely LEGAL for them to do?
这一切对他们来说都是合法的吗?
In 2017, a young tech executive by the name of Lisa Young — A MIT honors graduate who worked her way up from a junior software engineer — leaked one of the biggest controversies in consumer electronics history.
2017年，一位名叫丽莎·杨的年轻科技高管泄露了消费类电子产品历史上最大的争议之一，丽莎·杨毕业于麻省理工学院(MIT)，是一名荣誉毕业生，从一名初级软件工程师一路走来。
Here, is Lisa’s story...
一下就是丽莎的故事......
Hi I’m Lisa Young,
大家好，我是丽莎.杨，
Yes, the infamous software executive from Apple.
是的，我就是那个臭名昭著的苹果软件主管。
I was living the Silicon Valley dream:
I had a chance to meet Steve Jobs and work under Tim Cook.
我一直生活在硅谷的梦想中:
我有机会见到史蒂夫·乔布斯，并在蒂姆·库克手下工作。
I had a nice cozy $2.7 million dollar flat in the heart of San Francisco.
我在旧金山市中心有一套价值270万美元的舒适公寓。
My career was taking off and I was in charge of iOS security and beta software testing teams.
我的事业蒸蒸日上，负责iOS安全和beta软件测试团队。
But in late 2015, my boss revealed a dark secret to me…
但在2015年末，我的老板向我透露了一个黑暗的秘密……
My boss informed me that they were using a new strategy that would purposely slow down older phones everytime the phone would upgrade to the latest operating system.
我的老板告诉我，他们正在使用一种新策略，每次手机升级到最新的操作系统时，都会故意放慢旧手机的速度.
This new method would force customers to buy the latest phone model, increasing sales by 70%. I was a little disturbed to hear the news, but I just kept my head down and continued to do my job.
这种新方法将迫使消费者购买最新型号的手机，销量将增加70%。听到这个消息时我感觉有点不安，但我只是低下头继续做我的工作。
After a while, the guilt of being involved with such a shady sales model started to weigh heavy on me.
过了一段时间，我开始为自己被卷入这样一个阴暗的销售模式而感到内疚。
The whole “corporate greed” was too much to bear, how could a multi-billion dollar corporation continue to take advantage of the public like this?
整个“企业的野心”让人无法忍受，一个数十亿美元的企业怎么能继续这样利用公众的利益呢?
I began to really despise what I was doing and why I was still doing it.
我开始真正鄙视我正在做的事情，并懊恼为什么我还在做。
In March of 2017, I contacted a reporter to finally set things straight.
2017年3月，我联系了一位记者，终于把事情弄清楚了。
I leaked the information concerning Apple slowing down phones.
我泄露了有关苹果放慢手机速度的信息。
The scandal went viral overnight, and every media outlet in the world, in every language was talking about it.
这一丑闻一夜之间就像病毒一样传播开来，世界上所有的媒体都在用各种语言谈论这件事。
It even caused the stock to plummet.
这甚至导致股票暴跌。
A week later, I was secretly let go after my 8 years of service.
一周后，我在工作8年后被秘密解雇了。
Although I was taking a huge risk going against one the most powerful corporations in the world, I felt a sense of relief exposing them.
尽管我冒着巨大的风险去对抗世界上最强大的公司之一，但我还是感到了一种如释重负的感觉。
The public deserved to know and the fear became my vengeance to find a way to destroy their shady sales model.
公众理应知道，而这种恐惧成了我复仇的动力，我想找到一种方法来摧毁他们阴暗的销售模式。
Several of my colleagues were fired with me and were just as disgusted with the corporate greed.
我的几个同事和我一起被解雇了，他们对公司的贪婪同样感到厌恶。
