Is “not wanting to work with surveillance” an example of a political opinion from the left, or from the right? It kinda just seems like a personal preference.

- dpratt 5y agoIt’s entirely apolitical. I view it as entirely identical to a refusing to hire anyone who had been a chemist at a tobacco company.
- fastball 5y agoWhat if you're a chemist at a tobacco company trying to make the cigarettes people are already addicted to more healthy?
- systemvoltage 5y agoYea I mean how often do you come across a resume that has NSO on it. I am attacking the underlying tone of political activism in hiring committees. This seems deeply oppressive to me and signals 'internal rot' in corporations.
- Epa095 5y agoDo we somehow stop beeing moral beeing when we are at work? I thought that whole discussion were settled 65 years ago. But I notice that you are using the term "political activism", so maybe its rather that you find this particular cause not worthy of a real moral issue, its merely "political activism"? And if so, what causes would actually be important enough for you that you would consider them relevant for you, even at work?
