If unions go away, those laws will go away so fast it will make your head spin.... especially with the current crowd that's in power.
Exhibit A: Trump's executive order to repeal Dodd-Frank, a law which say (paraphrased) "don't deliberately fuck your customers" If the oligarchs had their way, they would punt us all the way back to the 1800's in terms of labor and environmental law.
If you think they are really going to "delete" the data, I have a bridge to sell you... It's been sold/rented/spindled/mutilated several times by now...
In the group I worked with @ HP, they had to hire Americans just so they could lay them off. Seriously: in my group they hired a bunch of developers that had been out of school anywhere from 0 - 5 years, and then 6 months later, replaced them with H1's. You read it right: Meg had to hire people in order to make her layoff quota.
For shits and giggles, I looked up "The Work Number" and out of morbid curiosity, signed up. Holy shitsnacks they have a lot of information, and it was trivial for me to get it. A lot of the information they have is flat out wrong, but the most recent salary info they have for me is very current and correct.
I was born in SF (1967). My parents were poor, and we lived in an crappy apartment building on Geary, about 2 blocks from Ocean Beach; there is no way we could have afforded to live there today.

But by this time, the executives who started the offshoring in the first place have cashed their bonus checks and moved on.
Yeah - too late by then. Buh-bye!
The story about netgear vulnerabilities broke last year (and I had read your post on them - thanks!) so why is this getting posting again to /.?
This crap was a puff piece a month ago on the evening news, and now it's making it to /.?

The first rule of the internet: If you aren't paying for a service, you're the product, not the customer
And a lot of companies blindly copied shit she was doing because they thought it looked hip: for example - banning people from working remotely.
Ah, but they love to adopt kids from exotic locations - that's all the rage now I hear.
