Reddit mods discuss forming a union and suing for back pay

  • This will go nowhere, however if it were to try to go somewhere, Mods would need to enter legally binding agreements to abide by union rules.

    That meaning, if the union votes to private your stuff, to shut down scripts, etc, you can be held liable to some extent or another.

    Right now, these protests are largely people pussyfooting, jumping in, and when the water gets a little hot, screaming "oh no" and hopping out. This cannot happen if you want to effectively collectively bargain. Scabs cannot be amongst those united. There can be no question on loyalties.

    It's not gonna happen, but it'd be hella interesting if it did.
