The protests present a major test for President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who campaigned as a transformative figure. Critics say his response is falling short. “He was supposed to represent a change and it turns out that he is not,” a member of a feminist collective said. Bobby Doherty for The New York Times 6. From its earliest days, Google urged employees to “act like owners” and pipe up in all manner of forums. Now it appears to be clamping down. Over the past year, Google scaled back opportunities for employees to grill their bosses; tried to prevent workers from discussing their labor rights with outsiders; and then, in November, fired at least four activists who had stepped forward to denounce Google’s treatment of workers and its relationships with certain customers. If the nation’s most sought-after workers can’t stop their employer from behaving in ways that they deplore, where does that leave the rest of us? We spoke to some of the fired activists, like Rebecca Rivers, above, [for The Times Magazine’s annual Future of Work issue](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgMEgSP0TsaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMC8wMi8xOC9tYWdhemluZS9nb29nbGUtcmV2b2x0Lmh0bWw_dGU9MSZubD1ldmVuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjAwMjE5JmNhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE2MTA5JnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjE0MTkmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyMjAyMDAyMTlXA255dEIKAB4Sw01ex4kZpVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).
