As our union has argued in the Department of Justice’s online search antitrust case, Google workers need to be at the table as the government crafts remedies to the company’s alleged monopolies. It is clear that Alphabet wields a lot of power in the search and ad tech markets, both of which imply significant power over workers and labor markets as well. Whatever federal regulators decide, workers and their unions represent a force to hold the company accountable and to ensure that adverse effects of the remedies do not fall disproportionately upon workers. Without a seat at the table, workers may bear the consequences of allegedly anticompetitive decisions made by executives.
