Has anyone seen that Patriot Act episode (the Netflix show with Hassan Minaj) where they talk about the video game industry? It sounds very much like advertising and they’re finally unionizing.

That was a great episode- it is like advertising for sure but I think we are the “lite” version of the video game community.

But hopefully we can follow suit in the future as you are totally right.

Yeah I think most are owned by EA, Sony, Blizzard-Activision, Microsoft.

I think it’s pretty similar to Advertising in that respect.

I think the big difference is they create a product, we only sell a product. So public perception is much more important and helps the employees.

When they lay people off, they often keep things quiet because it will "effect morale". But the firing itself is what effects morale. Being secretive about it undermines respect and harms morale more.
