Wow. This is a terrible approach for a worthy problem. You want to make the options into "lose my livelihood via being fired or lose my livelihood via social and rep consequences"? That is awful.
- pyr0hu 5y agoI'm looking forward when I'll be cancelled because I left the default branch name as master on my public github repos. No joke, in my mind this "solution" is on the same level as this monstrous cancelculture. You put a tracking in an OSS project that sends 2 anonym ID and maybe an IP address (which is easily spoofable anyway)? Time to cancel your career and your livelihood.
- sneak 5y agoHistorically, there have always nearly always been negative consequences for doing things that infringe the rights of others. If someone else telling the truth about one's actions on their webpage is a threat, perhaps people should be more measured in the actions they undertake. What I'm describing is reporting, not cancellation.
- tofuahdude 5y agoReport the company then, not the "worker bee". You're pursuing evil in your current plan.
