I was thinking about this reading the Naughty Dog thread on crunch. It's a heinous thing that needs to stop, but I think it goes beyond that. This same company, according to a former employee on Twitter, withheld his pay for fear of him telling the world about the working conditions! Sure, that's definitely illegal, but a company wouldn't dare if there was a union to defend them.
But what are the actual steps for devs to get a union? Will they have to come together to form it themselves, striking until their demands are met? Is there a "union guy" from outside the industry that comes and manages it?
Will it even happen if it's difficult in any way?
Please help educate myself and I'm sure many others on how this thing that needs to happen might happen.
