It’s aimed at entertainment but the latest Last Week Tonight covered this and is on YouTube. Hope this links works from my phone [VIDEO]
I hope the company had no involvement in this. It would be bit futile given such a large audience has seen their employees state they won't fly in the aircraft they build.

> Apple should be another Boeing, a company that exists to embody its regulation That is pretty funny because you're right, Apple is becoming another Boeing - a profit-above-all-else corporate asshole and just like Boeing what we need is a hell of a lot more regulation, not less: [VIDEO]

There is a very nice episode of Last Week Tonight by John Oliver diving into it, accessible on YouTube[0]. [0]: [VIDEO]
