Thats funny.  People should learn that a web hosting company isn't the
place to launch attacks on companies.  It gives you no credibility at
all.  If you are the kind of person who really cares about sweatshops
and wants to do something about them then go to google and type in
"sweatshops" and find the real scoop on what happens in them and how
to avoid stuff made in them.

As for Radioshack, I have never heard them listed as a sweatshop
company.  And a google search of "sweatshops levi radioshack" turned
up only two links, one is a 404 and the other has it embeded in the
html.  Not strong evidance that they are sweatshop people.  And i
don't even like Radioshack.  

The Big Names in sweatshops are Levi's, Gap, K-Mart, Victoria's
Secret, Banana Republic, Lane Bryant, the Limited, Abercrombie &
Fitch, Target, J.C. Penney, and Talbots, Disney, Mattel and almost any
company that makes shoes.

Sweatshop products are enpossible to avoid unless you make your own
stuff.  And "Made in $fill_in_your_contry_here" prdocts can still be
from sweat shops.  They exist in every contry.
