Let's not say never. Because they can course correct but it has to be hard pivot:

  • immediately recognize the union
  • in the same statement, provide a path for every other employee to form a union and guarantee that if formation passes, that they will immediately recognize it
  • commit whatever amount they were going to pay their union busting attorneys plus 25% towards helping other unionizing efforts across the tech industry
  • provide free legal services for unions at other companies to help them get recognized

The fact that Wikimedia foundation chose profits over people is absolutely disgusting.

Arrests don't mean anything.

Are they getting convicted?

Almost like they want to profit by harming kids.

The number of videos I watch on YouTube amounts to maybe 3 hours a week.

At best.

On average maybe 20-30 minutes.

I'm not willing to pay ~~$13~~ $9 a month for that.

Yeah so bad news. The government has routinely purchased data like this as an end run around the 4th Amendment. The data is collected by a third party, often with the customers "consent".

This is why we need stricter privacy controls around our data. The fact that this data was collated in the first place is problematic. The fact that it's being sold for profit is abhorrent.
