This is effective. Therefore, normalization of this plays into the workers' hands, gives them information, and gives economic advantage to honest agents.
I mean, you could compare it to any non-capitalist society, where such treatment of workers is declared unacceptable. But what does this translate into in reality?

No no, this quarter we’re trying to shift from capex to opex. Try to keep up.

You pretty much do that with wireless devices as a wISP.
I take it you haven’t seen the printer demolition scene from Office Space?
