Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Even the government has capitulated to the idea that devices themselves should be secure:

If you can deal in government data on your laptop at a starbucks, we most certainly can work at home behind locked doors in our own offices with anything equivalent.
See my other comment. It's also about physical security, protecting access to your work laptop and protecting IP. That VPN is completely useless if someone can get into your home and access your device. It's way easier to get into someone's home than into a properly secured office.
No. Even that is incorrect.
You are 4 nodes deeper in OSS intel required, (isemployee->hasaccess?->homeaddress->break in)
I also know there are only 2 people with keys to my home, the hours of operation are limited, and there are no 3rd parties with unrestricted physical access (maintenance, physical security, janitorial services.)
The only difference in person provides is a record of access, cameras and access control systems etc.
My home also has this record of access and if requested can be provided. Most folks have egress cameras nowadays too.
