OK, Mr Legal Dept, or Mike Sweater Boy, or one of his mouthpieces 👄

Yes, T-Mo can make their case against unionizing. But T-mobile has repeatedly violated labor law and been found guilty of doing so by the NLRB. This is why we receive those emails T-mo is required to send, informing employees that T-mo has broken the law.

We need to put this G-damn 'Clear' requirement on blast on social media. Let the world know how t-mo really treats employees.

Folks, please remember that VoiceStream Wireless/T-Mobile USA has been owned by Deutsche Telekom (DT) since 2001. DT’s ownership is currently at 57.4% as per the 9/26/2024 Schedule 13D/A filing; see the T-Mobile Investor Relations page, SEC Filing link below. Ultimately, the customers and the DT BOD will let us know when enough is enough, in my very humble opinion.

@7kvz+1uPA47i2
Which top executives have been held accountable and fired for the several data breaches?
And then the same executives who failed, get to negotiate terms of the consent decree, and use it as an excuse to track everyone all the more. (Never let a good crisis go to waste, after all.)
They sc--w up, you pay for it. The new American way.

@7kaz+1uPA47i2, if you recall from the ”Labor Relations and Collective Bargaining” courses, in your undergraduate Business degree program, there are “work rules” that are ”non-negotiable”. This would be one such work rule. Besides, as per the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics report, ”union membership rate—the percent of wage and salary workers who were members of unions—was 10.0 percent in 2023.”[^1] Just as the union has a legal right to make their case for unionizing, a company has a legal right to make their case for NOT unionizing.

I highly, highly, highly recommend that you read the FCC Consent Decree.[^2]

We need to unionize. Despite T-Mobiles illegal union-busting practices.

Don't comply with this!!! It's terrifying that T-mo is making this demand.

Another way to shrink the workforce. Non compliance will result in termination. No severance and no unemployment. Just like the shot. I will get them what they want if you want a job. Think about it, is this a hill to die on? No me, take my picture sir. Thank you, anything else sir.

This is all a big misunderstanding, they're actually mandating use of The Clear and The Cream to improve employee stamina.

OP was correct.

Mandated registration by Q1 2025 in email to all TMO.

As if Americans will sack up- that there is funny, I don't care who you are.
Americans will wave their flags and talk about how they are exceptional, how the US is the home of the free and the land of the brave, and then drop to their knees and pucker up for the low-lives, psychos and evil people that run their government and businesses.
Americans might as well be in a coma, there's no difference.

That will look good in the old 3rd Quarter report. $15.75 Million fine and $15.75 million in required cyber spending because Mikey is an id10T

However $31M is PEANUTS to a company taking down between $7 and $10 Billion per month in customer payments for service.

"should've sacked up 2 and a half years ago".
LOL. As an NTW in Tech, had I done that, I would not have earned $440K during that time frame.

Here's a tip: you work for hard-left, amoral losers who are obsessed with power and money, and see you as little more than an economic unit.
Y'all should've sacked up 2 and a half years ago. Cowardice comes with a price. Maybe it is finally dawning on you.

Perhaps, this biometric mandate might be a requirement to satisfy the recent FCC settlement Consent Decree. The 9/30/2024 CyberScoop article has a link to the Consent Decree, and the PDF link is below. The Consent Decree PDF document pages 8 through 11, summarizes the data breach incidents.

…in addition, having a LinkedIn profile makes it easier for the “bad actors” to target a company. As per the WIZA website, “Search our LinkedIn-powered database by name, title, or company and find real-time verified contact info for your outreach.”

"...threat of ‘bad actors’ gaining access to internal networks,...""

Bad Actors get into T-Mobile networks all the time. Collecting biometric data from people who work at TMO isn't going to stop that.

This is real. Cybersecurity had a call on Thursday and a follow-up email on Friday. The email includes a link to a web page with FAQ's.

On the call someone asked if this would be required of NTW's, and the response was "yes". The FAQ web page clearly states everyone too.

The timing is ambiguous but know it is coming.

This is confirmed true, but the implantation is in the air due to obvious reasons with the populous and the impact to the company. This will be a layoff disguised as “due to the threat of ‘bad actors’ gaining access to internal networks, we now require your biometrics to log in”. All that do not comply, will not get network access, and thus terminated.

Think about that beyond the service. One your face is scanned, our campus and work areas will turn into a monitored environment. All the cameras will watch you walk in, watch you take that smoke break or calculate how long you were out on lunch, and watch you at your desk.

This won’t go over well.

I subscribed to Clear at one time (free through Delta). I didn't renew when I was told "you don't have the right kind of Clear. Be wary of Clear.

That has to be fake. We can’t secure jack- imagine having our biometrics on the dark web. Worse, gaurav and cyber woild be forcing everyone else to implement and do a ton of extra work because his team don’t know networking, compute, caas, blah blah.
