No, unions and governments are very different things. The fact that we left things to the government without grassroots power is in part what allowed regulatory capture to persist.
- eigenrick 6y agoI think they were specifically referring to the "Customer's Union" Employees Unions are unions. The needs supplied by a Customer's Union should, in part, be supplied by a Government. The other needs could be called a "Consortium" or a "Industry Working Group". If it were targeted specifically at Google, there might be legal ramifications. So such a Working Group might need to be focused on Ad-buyers or SEO Professionals at large. Such groups already exist.
- tehjoker 6y agoAn "Industry Working Group" is an elite consortium and rarely acts in the interests of the people. A grassroots organization can focus on Google or anything else it wants to do. If it needs to broaden its umbrella slightly that would be better as its more sustainable.
