Welcome to Workers of the World Wide Web, a brand new podcast about tech workers and the tech they work on, from United Tech & Allied Workers, the UK’s first trade union for tech.
On the agenda this week, Shireen Asaw, Eleanor Payne, Vanessa Heron-Hua and Edwin Dorley establish some ground rules, talk about Rockstar committing Grand Theft Union-Busting and catch up on the latest AI cons.
The motion this week: "should trade unions disaffiliate from labour?"
