Retaliation in influencer marketing and digital media workplaces often appears as exclusion, reduced hours, or sudden criticism rather than termination. California employees are protected under FEHA, Labor Code 1102.5, FMLA, and ADA.

🧡 Dynamex & CA worker misclassification:

1/ 2018 CA Supreme Court adopted ABC testβ€”workers presumed employees unless proven otherwise

2/ Prong B is the trap: perform core business services? You're likely an employee

3/ Applies retroactively per Vazquez v. Jan-Pro (2021)β€”challenge past misclassification

4/ Remedies: back wages, overtime, expense reimbursement, penalties & attorney fees

Many Beverly Grove beauty retail employees experience unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work, and missed breaks. California labor laws provide strong protections and allow workers to recover unpaid wages and penalties.

Whistleblower protections in California go further than many employees think. Financial workers reporting fraud, compliance violations, or misconduct may be protected under both state and federal law. Strong documentation can make or break your case.

Looking the US laws are forcing a trend in operative systems in general that are invasive, I wonder if it will became another point of contender between EU/US about computing in general.
In this field, at least EU was able to strike hard to US enough to annoy them, a lot.
And in these years we are see a lot of point of friction boiling under the surface (uuhm Greenland?).
More than privacy, are excuses to excise some soft power, but still...

California Age Law, as EU citizen, I lie outside this issue, but there is a big "what" that concern EU in general: being the Californian requirement system invasive that can fall into legalized spyware, I wonder if this goes to clash with EU law in terms of privacy and data protections that have a lot of impact on the tech field.
What if FOSS devs are so much focused to please California that EU goes to smack their head later?

Actually, it doesn't.

But the legislative record does. The California legislature has detailed accounts of what was brought up, pro and con, in committee.

It shows that the only 'free' things that the objectors thought about, the only things recorded as formal objections by concerned parties, were gratis applications on Microsoft/Google/Apple App Stores, and a supposed effect on their development costs.

No-one mentioned the #Unix model of user accounts or the BSD/Linux-based/Illumos-based operating system models of application packaging.

That said, it really was up to someone like IBM to spot this and lobby at the very least for #RedHat and RPMs to be taken into consideration in the definitions of 'covered application store' and whatnot.

Those are unrealistically optimistic expectations of both the politics and the legislative procedure. This #CaliforniaLaw is nigh-on certain to come into effect as-is, come 2027-01-01.

And at last count, #AlpineLinux now faces the same laws, with state-specific variations that are bound to introduce complexities, coming up in Colorado, Illinois, and New York. (I haven't directly tracked down the bill in any other states, but I've seen reports of at least one more.)

It's good that someone is doing that. IBM seriously dropped the ball when it came to lobbying about this, given how it affects #RedHat. No-one even brought up the implications for #Unix-like operating systems in #California.

You're not the first person to talk about amending the California Bill. It's an Act now, not a Bill, though. It's nigh on impossible to supersede it before 2027-01-01.

The politics, as well as the physical realities of how long it takes to enact legislation, mean that there just isn't the time, even if the will could be drummed up.

The current Act took 8 months to pass, itself, and not only is there no-one in California really lobbying to fix this, there's also the political problem of seeming to want to carve a massive exemption in a law that only months ago passed through every stage in the legislature with zero 'no' votes.
