For-profit corporations without employee ownership and regular employees on the board of directors will inevitably treat employees like disposable cogs or dirt. The mistake many people repeatedly make is the line-up to be abused when they should form their own business ventures with civilized, humane, and Golden Rule treatment of others rather than rent-seeking investors to squeeze blood money out of them and cheat them out of livable wages.

This.

You don't want this to happen to you? Unionize.

The tech industry might finally get the wakeup call to unionize.

How would that help? If a company loses 80% of its revenue over night adjustments will have to be made, union or no union.
Adjustments can be made in a much more humane way.
