A decade ago, Business Week, a leading American
business magazine, dubbed several of the US-based Indian software firms as
“High-Tech Sweatshops”. These were akin to manufacturing sweatshops in China,
which skirted around, even broke, global laws, mistreated workers, and used
unethical practices, even as they produced premier global brands. The magazine
highlighted several examples to illustrate how the software sweatshops
functioned, and how they abused the American visa system to build a network of
dubious “human supply chain that reaches halfway around the world”.
