I wonder the same thing. I think we've already seen some of this happening, however the consequences haven't been large enough to the organization, for example:

We can only hope that engineers working in safety critical systems haven't fallen to these working conditions.
As long as people keep gaslighting by sayting those events are just "skill issues," I doubt there will sadly be a catalyst.
Yeah, this will never happen until governments step in and cause these companies real pain. I mean just look at Crowdstrike. They caused billions and billions in economic damage due to their incompetence, and nothing happened. In fact, their stock is close to an all time high.
