This makes no sense to me. Tech workers have way more flexibility than many other types of workers. If you aren't comfortable with your employers practices, go find another employer. No need for a union to do that.

Collective bargaining will always have more negotiating strength than individuals changing employers. The owning class right now is collectively moving to worsen work conditions by colluding in getting people back into the office. Workers should answer collectively as well or it will not go anywhere. Sure, you can change employers, but more and more employers are cracking down in the same way.

    So do I but a union helps with conditions on that too.

Unions aren't just for the poors. Take a look at the WGA strike - writers aren't exactly an oppressed class but they know they are key to the success of their industry - and are asking for meaningful compensation/contracts. They will likely succeed since the actors guild is also joining the strike. Your solution of voting with feet is an extreme countermeasure, many people want to improve 1 or 2 things about their workplace, not leave. Unions help with all of this.
