Yeah, it's not the company's fault, they should continue to pay below market wages and collude with other tech companies to artificially depress wages[1].

The case you link is about wage collusion on high-tech jobs, hardly the same as this case of minimum-wage workers.

Well they certainly shouldn't break the law as they did in the case you linked to. But if law is insufficient to ensure people that have a minimum standard of living — it's the law that should be updated rather than trying to shame companies on an ad hoc basis.
