SumOfUS.org removes false claim from Apple petition after collecting signatures

What's scary about actions like these is that when the time comes for people to hold Apple accountable for a real issue, we'd probably shrug it off as another demolition job against Apple.

Instead of really caring about the poor factory workers, these organizations are simply targeting one company. 
As we can see from the article below, despite the fact that something had apparently been done to address the situation way before the petition was started, they still continued to attack Apple.

As per the article, for your reading pleasure...

A petition drive run by SumOfUs.org, seeking to collect signatures prior to Apple's shareholder meeting today, has removed a primary claim it alleged against the company, substituting other deceptive wording after collecting tens of thousands of names with its original, very misleading allegations.
