At least Puri.sm has been doing their own hitherto,
Headline: An American-Made iPhone: Just Expensive or Completely Impossible?
I won’t link to it, you may experience a paywall, easily “DuckDuckWent”.

Another reason I didn’t give a link. You can infer meaning from the headline and extrapolate from there.

I had a really good time when visiting a Church near a University one time. An older man was talking to me and another guy. The older man was saying how awful it is in society that in truth our iPhones are made in buildings with suicide nets in awful conditions overseas.
I pulled my Liberty phone out of my pocket in the middle of the conversation and said, “Oh, yeah, uh I actually I use phone made by some guys in California from a company called Purism, and they don’t have suicide nets since it’s made in USA”
It was like one of those moments being an error in our common understanding of society. The guy was really curious about it, as it seemed to come from nowhere.

Although I would think they should be called ANTI-suicide nets.
Over in Switzerland there are the Sarco suicide pods. (Maybe inspired by Futurama?)
