Thank you for the info.

I really wish these articles were more specific to what the job titles of these employees are.

https://www.nlrb.gov/case/16-RC-305751

INCLUDED: All full-time and regular part-time Senior Process Executive-Data/Music Generalist (SPEs) and Project/Process Specialists/Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) employees employed by the Employers in YouTube Music Content Operations who are employed to work from the Employer’s (Cognizant Technology Solutions U.S. Corporation) facility at 717 E. Parmer Lane in Austin, Texas. Eligible to vote are those in the unit who were employed during the payroll period immediately preceding the issuance of this Decision.

EXCLUDED: Team Leads, temporary employees, seasonal employees, managerial employees, professional employees, confidential employees, guards and supervisors as defined in the Act.

If their contracts have a set expiration like what Google claims then, as temporary or season employees, they are excluded from being part of the Alphabet Workers Union-Communications Workers of America.

Thanks for the link and info. So I tried to find something dealing with hiring agencies at irs.gov using site:irs.gov but couldn't find anything. For financials, shouldn't that fall under Cognizant since they are the ones paying the workers?

Cognizant chief communications officer Jeff DeMarrais said in an email to The Verge that the team will be given seven weeks of pay and opportunities to find another role within Cognizant.

It seems like they are employees of Cognizant instead doing YouTube Music work.

These same users are the ones downloading malware and getting their info stolen.

• Websites can have a nice user interface.
• Proper QR code usage makes sure users no longer have to type in URLs.
• Most of these user would use a search engine by default anyway.
• Browsers have bookmarks and website can have icons on home screens.

The team of more than 40 went on strike in February last year, demanding changes to Google’s return-to-work policy.

Can they prove they are needed if they weren't needed for over a year?

“Contracts with our suppliers across the country routinely end on their natural expiry date.”

Google or Alphabet (or whoever) probably gave Cognizant a contract with an expiration date for YouTube Music. After a year of being on strike, the contract expired. Does that still count as firing?

Filling offices is a priority to companies. That priority is important enough to Google to not give the right to work remotely to these employees.

If Nintendo wins, the Github page and the website page will probably shutdown.

Forking it now is a good idea.

If you read the lawsuit Nintendo is suing because Yuzu acknowledges their software can't run without the Switch's decryption keys. Yuzu also has instructions to extract the decryption keys on their website. So Yuzu is not completely reverse engineering how the Switch runs games.

Download Yuzu now, sideload later. Just in case.

Amorally, probably. Ilegally? No, they are not.

I think @Fake4000@lemmy.world made a solid point here.

Nintendo goes after those that make money. That includes ROM sites too. For example, Nintendo didn't sue Dolphin developers, they told Valve to take down their software. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I am not saying that Nintendo goes only after those that make money but maybe a money papertrail takes away the anonymousness of the internet. Bank accounts makes finding people a whole lot easier.

You are correct, about the legal stuff. These companies are being sued all the time.

Doing this deal also makes processing the data a lot easier. Being handed a big ass database would be a lot easier than crawling for content.

What I posted was about how they operate. These companies showed time and time again that they don't really care what data they are taking or from whom. They will even take their own AI or machine learning content and put it in their own system.

All these AI and machine learning companies are taking content directly from websites and ignoring robot.txt files.

If your content is able to be crawled, even without being listed on search engines, I don't think it really matters.

I want to know what happens when something is only a criminal activity in a state.

Is an Alabama resident moving eggs and IVF clinics to a different state considered criminal activity?

How about a Texas resident talking about getting an abortion in a different state?

I'm not sure if state governments can even requests this but it does interest me what Proton's response would be. What if it was countries instead of states?
