Google seems to have pushed a massive amount of ai-generated 4 and 5 star reviews to their new "Android Developer Verifier" app
(reddthat.com)
This app is set to stop people from installing apks or using stores and apps not accepted by google ("verification" requires payment of course). The play store listing does not have images, a proper description, and the app cannot be opened.
Screenshots from the play app because google did something custom for this playstore listing which crashes Aurora. It's fixed in the latest fdroid release, but I noticed that too late, so most screenshots are from googles shitty app.
They should unionize and negotiate that they can't get fired over rejecting to do clearly unethical work.
Because right now their options are:
a) Comply with unethical work
b) Reject to do it and get fired and thrown into a job economy where its going to take months if not a year or more to find a job.
they can't unionize, the burgeiosie class has done everything to keep unemployment high as in that way they can always just fire everyone and simply rehire new ones, keeping unemployment high reduces the power of workers
Then b.1. Some other desperate guy takes their place and complies
I strongly agree with you but I'm afraid it's too late, they need to leave their workplaces or be considered complicit, at least those who would but "can't" for the reasons you listed above. The others,those who believe in what they're doing or cannot see the damage they're provoking with their work,idk ,fuck them all I guess
