And Amazon will move those jobs to India. Mission accomplished. I'd argue that was the very original goal of all this. Worker Councils lineally shot themselves in the foot.

So when do we start putting tariffs on imported code? If it's all just a shell game to move to the lowest paid and most abusive environment available, then working conditions will never really improve.

If those jobs could be moved to India, they would already be there. But you cannot run a fulfilment center one continent over. Or a competitive (EU data protection legislation compliant) datacenter.
