This is a great example in my opinion of the apathy we need to combat as technologists.
Why did NO ONE in any meetings when designing this "feature" or process say anything?
"This is wrong/greedy/will have blowback."
No one voiced concerns? Or, more specifically, if they did, no one listened? They didn't think this would leak out, with all the hatred regarding wage stagnation, income inequality, corporate greed?
A marketing pro, PR specialist, or frankly anyone in touch with culture and human beings would have throw up a flare that this is a terrible idea.
What is going on with culture at these companies?
