"When a system begins to remember us forever, and wherever we go…. we will not be our true selves. We will be the self we know it’s okay to remember."

It'd be hard for someone like a Google to function well if their software engineers all walked, regardless of how they are split up across departments. This kind of technical talent is extremely hard to find, making it to more difficult for the company to replace them if they do get fired for forming a union.

I'm interested in seeing whether we begin to see more unionizing among tech workers and therefore more collective action. It'd be like the incidents detailed here but to the Nth degree.
