At least luddites broke the machines in their protest.
Feeding machines to get a pat on the head from the bosses is seriously fucked.
I guess anyone working for 'meta' was already a cunt to start with though.
If the tokens are the company's property and not yours, I guess it's no different from paying for things with play money. (Or maybe the fake money they burn for the dead in China would be a better analogy.)
