This affects everyone. It represents your boss making demands of your likeness for ownership. Some of us already had to politely decline to sign away our likeness and alterations to it for no compensation in return. It's clear what they want to do. They want to just take the likeness of the most beautiful and the most productive. They know every keystroke on company hardware and your general performance patterns, and they want to steal your patterns and thought processes especially if you go full bore and give them 100% all the time as a rockstar. They want you without paying you.
The only way against this is Federal legislation making it illegal. The Federal Government should also create steep fines levied against any company that already tried to push this envelope. Awful bosses will never learn otherwise. You cannot pretend to say things about inclusion, equity, diversity, only to then make a move like this. This move signifies attempted ownership of a person's entire being, and some groups have no gall at all and make it clear that they don't even intend to give you any money for it. It is out-in-the-open broad daylight theft while they laugh at the majority of the people who have no power to say or do anything since in these economic times they can just coerce you into doing it because of necessity.
They want your productivity, appearance, style, and abilities and they want to give you nothing. Don't be fooled into a sense of pride because you're an engineer or a designer or a director or an executive or even a CEO - don't be someone who thinks that an extra in Hollywood is far below you and that this doesn't affect you. The technology is the same and will be applied to everyone's likeness unless you say no and unless the Federal Government gets involved to issue laws with serious teeth against this brazen theft.
