It’s weird that they reference alphabet workers union when specifically that union has done nothing for full time software engineers in its entire time.
Check out their wins:

Lots of references to contractors wins which I think are more important but the facts make the opposite point then the article is making.
The reason why software engineers won’t unionize in the US is because the US has weakened the power of unions so much.
There are already unions in Europe for Alphabet that have done things - the French union just outright rejected alphabets attempt to do layoffs.
