Oh, and in Japan, public transport strike by refusing to take money from passengers. They get all the public support because everyone gets a free ride and no one is pissed of that they can't get to work.

Hmm, per my worldview I’m not totally sure if that counts, actually …but maybe it does πŸ€” On the one hand, the service is being provided but compensation not collected. Under most circumstances I’d consider this stealing from the employer, as opposed to a simple strike where you freely don’t show up to work. On the other hand, it’s the state, and I can entertain some question about how much they are owed further money when their existence and activity is primarily funded through extortion.
