@jonny @timnitGebru Microsoft is a lot of things; a friend to labor is *not* one of them.
"Microsoft was now *“a friend of the labor movement”*. (A later phone call elaborated that CWA is an affiliate of UNI and helps pay UNI salaries. And that any critique of Microsoft could lead to one or more UNI employees being fired.)"
mmmmm... yeah, so, friends of labor movements don't immediately fire people in retaliation for speaking up.
