Joke's on them for not unionizing.

That’s funny because I don’t even work for meta and I’m also fucking miserable because of it

I typically want good things for all people, but I don't feel bad for people who knowingly worked for an evil company when bad things happen.

Who would think that a company whose site is basically a safe haven for racists and trolls at this point with no moderation would push away your average person and need to dump staff

Here in Australia, you can barely even comment on anything anymore without some tryhard being racist or abusing the government. Even worse, lots of people with criminal incitement that gets ignored

Literally saw a photo of cane toads. Some wanker commented "that's Albo penny Wong and dan andrews". There was no reason to be political at all

It's just no longer fun on there. And there is no way to block all posts by people you don't know by default from your wall

I don't get it? How can it be horrible to work for a horrible company, that has a leader with zero respect for other people?
This is probably the greatest mystery of our time!

Back in the day, workers used to go on strike until they get what they want. And when the cops showed up with guns so did they.

Or they'd straight up go to the boss' house, drag him out and beat him.

This were the days.

Thats 8000 people with experience running social media that could use their knowledge and wealth to build the Fediverse and competitively reduce Meta's monopoly.

If even a small group of them realise the agency they have, it could be damaging to Meta, and an acceptable form of growth for the Fediverse as a whole.

I'm assuming anybody that works at Meta still now must be so signed up to their horrible practices, so i don't expect much from former Meta employees. I'd be happy to be surprised though.

Burn it to the ground, metaphorically

Should be in Uplifting News.

Imagine ... 8000 workers at the company doing as much damage as they can. Fucking up software, deleting backups, luigiing EOs, accounting just transferring the company's finances to all of the workers.

It would be the most beautifully orchestrated chaos in centuries.

Oh no some of our colleagues at the torment nexus might be let go

Is this to help them burn cash on AI a bit longer? That's how I'm taking it.

program captures keystrokes, clicks, mouse movements and periodic screenshots […] to train AI agents capable (?) of mimicking human workflows

Question mark added. Adding insult to injury, they’ve been training their “replacements”. Can’t wait to see the whole enterprise go down in flames.

If they're not afraid to fuck their users, don't act surprised when you work for them and one day they decided to fuck you in the ass.

What is the point of working at Facebook anymore. What are you accomplishing working for this company. It doesn’t even have much of a clear product anymore.

what's 8000 people potentially going homeless when fuckerberg can make ANOTHER billion dollars.

An already terrible company treats you terribly? Make the transition rough. Delete old notes, write bugs in scripts, delete admin accounts. Think about what makes your job work, what makes the work work, and figure out what the equivalent of monkey wrenching is for the digital age. Don't let the bastards get you down.
