“Historically, labor unions arose when people had gotten a taste of a different lifestyle and were willing to pay a lot more for their basic livelihood and had gotten into a fix they couldn't get out of - because they had accepted the unacceptable to begin with.

I think Internet technology has really upended that whole equation because in some ways a designer's work is never really done online.”
