There are also people staying to try to unionize or sabotage the company. Don't bundle them with the scabs. Quitting won't change much within meta.

They’re still working for a company that engages in mass data collection and selling people’s private info to the highest bidder. A union at the company doesn’t make that ethical.

Until it starts using its power to decide what technology and contracts are taken by the company. That's the endgame of the tech labor movement and the labor movement in a lot of industries that deal with ugly stuff.

Also there's no ethical production under capitalism.

By working for a company and thus make them dependent on your labor (to some degree) you have power. By not working for that company, you have no power.
