Nah, he might just have good skin microbiome.

You will have the structure to rework your own cybersecurity stack much earlier than you will attract the interest of any authority. It's much harder to build an organization that has even a little crumb of impact than it is to secure your communication channels. Focus on the first.

An organization with secure communication and no impact is impossible to fix. An organization with a lot of impact and insecure communication: it's a few days/months of focused work to fix.

well, from where else should come the power to interject with the company's plans if not from forming unions? Like what does it mean to hold a company accountable if you have no leverage? Quitting and making a post on social media about it?

Good, even though the union strategy of getting a slice of the cake while enabling processes that will screw over workers everywhere else can be debated.

because these statements are instrumental to building power. They are not a draft of a negotiation proposal. They are a galvanizing message for workers, not a formal demand. Without power, formal demands are pointless. To build power, clarity, concreteness and directness beats idealism, rigour and formalism every day.
