A significant chunk of all future IT workers, and as olalonde points out[1] some won't because they don't believe its wrong.

How about you answer the question I asked before yours. "I can point to a long history of groups entering politics affecting change, can you do the same with a pledge to quit?"

I find the whole premise of the pledge to be a non-starter in the US. This is why congresspeople fear the NRA but not the EFF.

I don't understand what the US has to do with this pledge. The people signing it don't need legal defense against their employers. Leaving their jobs is the point.

Are you trying to affect change or just have out of work techs?

I can point to a long history of groups entering politics affecting change, can you do the same with a pledge to quit?

Both!

I guess jokes on me, I should have known from the curtness of your first reply and when you wouldn't answer my question that you were just trolling me.

I'm confused. That was a sincere response.
