I might be mistaken, but aren’t Wikipedia’s origins in objectivism? It would make sense if so for the foundation to oppose a trade union (in no way am I saying they are in the right though).
Yeah the founder is or was into that. Thus the idea that Wikipedia’s editorial decisions could essentially be made by algorithms. I have some jokes about it but will spare you for now. The WMF itself is just another tech company with some nonprofit virtue vibes though. Expect a typical campaign.

Uh, what? The Ayn Rand garbage philosophy? I’ve never heard that and don’t see how that jibes with a free, crowd sourced encyclopedia…

Jimmy Wales is an objectivist- he moderated online forums related to Ayn Rand before he started Nupedia and Wikipedia.
