A mix of computer code sabotage and social media-enabled activism has opened up a new front in the ongoing labor dispute between grocery chain employees and managers.
Labor disputes are as old as capitalism itself, but the battlefields they play out on are continually evolving.
“Let’s say you’ve always wanted to work at a Ralphs,” said activist Sean Wiggs, posting under the screen-name Sean Black, in ahe uploaded to TikTok on Tuesday. “Let’s say you’ve always had a dream to submit a — or multiple — application to this specific Ralphs store.” applicants there leads to a gray page and the message: “This job cannot be viewed at this time. It has either been deleted or is no longer available.” Wiggs said in his TikTok video that the site lacked basic protections against automated spam attacks such as email verification or anti-bot Captchas.
Tens of thousands of union members voted to authorize a strike if their wage demands aren’t met during impending contract negotiations. Alongside Ralphs, a subsidiary of Kroger, other chains that could be subject to the strike include Albertsons, Vons and Pavilions.
