The struggle for worker rights and environmental justice at Apple has been the center of Apple worker Ashley Jovik's critical struggle. She was fired more than 5 years ago after she made health and safety complaints about the fumes from a toxic dump site that was below her office at Apple.
She was harassed, bullied and bankrupted by this 4 trillion-dollar corporation who wanted to shut her down and destroy her life.
She also has won suits at the NLRB that she was retaliated against for defending her worker rights and she also discovered that there was an illegal Apple Fab plant next to her apartment that was contaminating the neighborhood
Join Ashley for this important discussion about her work and why this is critical for all tech workers and environmentalists in Silicon Valley and throughout the United States.

No More " Protective Orders" To Silence Apple Whistleblower Ashley Gjovik & Other Workers-Stop Profiting By Spying On Genitals!
https://youtu.be/_OAIWUr-IfE
The Apple corporation is seeking to silence Apple whistleblower Ashley Gjovik by a "Protective Order” that would prevent
her from speaking about illegal actions by Apple that violate labor, environmental laws and illegal use of their tech to spy
on workers bodies and genitals.
A press conference was held in front of the San Francisco Federal Building and Court to oppose these tactics and to stop
the use of these orders to silence tens of thousands of workers who are exposing illegal activities by their bosses.
Apple is also facing a hearing for Summary Judgement after more than five years of the illegal firing of Apple engineering
manager Ashley Gjovik for going to the EPA, OSHA and the NLRB for illegal activity by Apple.
Gjovik discovered that here office in Silicon Valley was about a toxic dump site and she and other workers were being
poisoned. She complained to the EPA and was fired weeks before they investigated the site.
She was also sickened by an illegal Apple Fab factory next to her apartment complex in Santa Clara.
This press conference was held on April 2, 2026.
