I don't know why I liked this story so much, but I did. Maybe it's because the Chinese girl had a mischievous smile and what appears to be a happy-go-lucky attitude despite having a mindless job in a country with an authoritarian government. Or perhaps because the girl who assembled the product in China has "reached out" to the iPhone buyer in the U.S. in a "small world" sort of why. Or maybe it's because the Internet community gushed over the entire mystery until it was ultimately solved.
