I would check in with another local Union. UC grad students are organized under UAW, which was nominally united auto workers.

why would you expect it to get better if Google is broken up?
Google has a massive conflict of interest; it both sells ads to SEO'ed websites, and ranks searches. Their incentive is for you to go to the pages with the most of their ads possible. Even a company with revenue purely from ads on the search page has less terrible incentives.

There's a distinction to be made between things that "look" dystopian, and actual dystopias. I think a lot of our current visual language of dystopia was taken from fascist/communist design choices which were in many respects independent of all the oppression they perpetrated. this example really drove that home for me, since the media it inspired came to mind before the reality.

wow, I was assuming metropolis. it just screams dystopia to me, but I guess they had to get that aesthetic from somewhere
