Mostly labor law, and when violated at a systemic degree by the largest corporations against those who do not make enough money to have influence against the free market. (Gig workers and anyone not making at least 3x minimum wage - that's a good place to start.)
I'd actually prefer that people go to jail over it. I would like executives and middle management to be afraid of violating labor law. If you have 3 employees, I could see ignorance being an excuse. However, these are giant corporations that have the economies of scale for this to be really profitable (and inhibit competition) and the resources to make sure they stay on the right side of the law.

- kerkeslager 2y agoThe violation of this specific California law simply isn't enforceable at a systemic level, but the problem it is trying to address is definitely systemic. Abuses of this nature are reported on social media by workers at Amazon warehouses everywhere.
