Which is only possible for people who live in the same hemisphere as the building and have citizenship or visa.

Remote work is international work.

Not at most companies; the legal implications of working from other countries mean that, unless you want to misrepresent yourself and create a fake "home" address, digital nomad lifestyles are explicitly forbidden.

That's why i'm incorporated and no one needs to care about labor laws to pay me.

If the company wants me as an employee because they can impose tougher restrictions on me that way, sorry, it's a seller's market for developers.

I don't think you can "remotely" work for Apple without a work visa. If your paycheck comes from Apple US, and you don't have the right to work in America, that's a pretty clear violation of immigration law.

What are you talking about? Is Apple asking people to go into offices in countries where they aren't employed..?

[golergka]

Apple is not employing people from other countries that the office in the first place.

[thebean11]

So what's your point?

[golergka]

My point is about how not being remote, quote,

> will lead to a "younger, whiter, more male-dominated, more neuro-normative, more able-bodied"

because it's not about coming to office 3 days a week, it's about not hiring international remote workers in the first place.

Tons of remote companies are US only, or even "one timezone in the US" only. Apple going remote doesn't mean the existing teams US teams would become international.
