Well: > Anywho, that’s Apple for you. Why am I still an iOS developer? I dunno, I got bills to pay. People will chase the money. Even with the onerous review process and 30% cut, there's still a good amount of money to be made on the App Store. This is the standard collective action problem: if a significant chunk of iOS app developers just said "that's enough, we're not working on this anymore" (and if legions of other developers didn't surge in to replace them), then you better believe things would change. But no one wants to stick out, and most software developers seem to think they're too good for a union. |

Unionizing in global workforce is a fool's errand. Especially when authoritarian governments exist.
Even if there was an IT worker's International, some asshole in e.g. North Korea can prevent IT workers joining on pain of death.
Or outlaw it. Or deem it a terrorist hacker collective.
