You can't be a spy unless you're an insider. You can't be a traitor unless you owe allegiance to a government. He was in neither situation with respect to the Untied States of Dumberica.
He's not a US citizen, he owes no fucking allegiance to the US. He has no duty to protect US secrets or to the US government. Screw the US for presuming that they can bully the world for publishing information they don't like.
Not even chains. Commercial kitchens get up by UberEats or the Amazon equivalent. Going out or ordering by phone is so 1995, and techrobots are antisocial.
Look at what the US military and CIA did in Latin America in the 60s through 80s. Operation Condor. The US may be (relatively) free internally but it exports authoritarianism, then whines when it comes back and slaps them in the nose.
Nuclear weapons and bioweapons don't care either. Doesn't mean that moral people should be working in improving either. If everyone uses the argument is "someone else will do it, so I may as well," then those things will get developed more rapidly and by brighter minds.
Sometimes, resistance and disobedience are needed to correct a moral wrong. Good on the workers for doing what they can. I don't really empathize with billionaire CEOs -- worst case, they have have a few million less: they'll survive.
No, just locking up 1% of their adult population, sticking people with criminal records for comparatively minor things for life, and going on military homicide campaigns abroad. How many have we killed in Iraq since 2003, I wonder.
If you think that facial recognition is to prevent terrorism, I feel sorry for you. More like "arrest people with an unpaid traffic ticket from 1995." Don't underestimate the greed of governments.
I love seeing all companies that increase surveillance and damage privacy, whether "liberal" or "conservative" be thus targeted. It's great that Americans are finally seeing through the BS of the military and prison-industrial complexes.
"Rent-a-coder" probably wouldn't fly with secret projects. Also, what's to stop people with an interest in social justice from working for you and doing their best to give you flawed code.
(2) Companies are run by humans. Humans have a duty to be moral, even if it reduces shareholder return. There was a company, I.G. Farben, in Germany, which knowingly furnished poison gas to the Nazis. Its chief chemist, Bruno Tesch, faced a firing squad for this in 1946 and rightly so.

"Prostituted." Other countries are being turned into the prostitutes of the US, told to harass Assange while the US comes up with a plan.

So. Let them move to North Carolaaaahna.
Opposed to predators moving in...Amazon's entire business model is based on destruction of human privacy and abuse of employees.
You're confusing cause and effect here. Oscaio-Cortez is in the same boat as most Americans, due to predatory malinvestment.
LI City hasn't actually been "distressed" for 15 years or so. More like hipster/yupster paradise built on former toxics sites.
Maybe he's worried it will be knocked down to build Scumazon HQ.
I don't care about the cops' time -- I care about the innocent people who are harassed based on false positives.
Waste of time, but the false positives give "probable cause" for further harassment...
Why the Troll (0) moderation -- I was discussing a legitimate historical case.
Troll spotted!

This isn't outsourcing, workers are organizing by themselves.

No -- it's the "left" actually taking pains to be decent human beings.

Exactly: the "elites" aren't the educated class, they're the exploiter class (of which Bezos is a member).
