Intentional code obfuscation in combination with strike action would likely be the threat tactic of choice for developers. Employers will likely react I a counter productive manner to this threat - e.g. mandating 100% unit test coverage which would be achieved with cryptic tests that actually make the code even harder to work with. This could lead to a decline in overall software quality in America if the relationship between developers/ops and management really sours.
