Fuck AI

While it's true the US is the worst example in the western world, with generally speaking no workers' rights, in my experience (in the EU) workers' rights have steadily eroded over at least the last decade.

Always online expectations, zero hour contracts, expectations of unpaid overtime, gig economy, salaries "under the table", food vouchers (instead of pay in order to avoid taxes) have become practically the norm where I come from. Recently shipping workers from overseas (mostly India and Uzbekistan) and paying them half a minimum wage (illegally ofc) has become quite popular too.

So yeah, while there are some workers protections written in the law, in practice they seem to matter less and less.
