I'm honestly not sure quitting is actually the most effective way to get what they want.

Managers and high profile people at companies like Facebook have a lot of leverage and can organise relatively easily because there's relatively few of them. The senior tech people and management need to recognise that they hold a ton of power because they basically run the place, their influence would be much better served by pressuring Facebook. It's Facebook who can't afford to lose them.

There needs to be some sort of class consciousness for the 'top 10% but not 0.1%'. They've got all the leverage in the world, and increasingly share no common ground with the owners of the business.
