> If I’m visiting country C and read my work email or take a work Zoom call, have I violated my tourist visa? If I check that email all 6 nights in my 7 day stay

I would not be surprised, but that's a question for the lawyer and the answer may vary by which country you're in under a tourist visa.

And likewise you may be owed overtime ;)

> If I’m on a tourist visa and brought my own job from outside the country, I’m not sure those workers have nearly as much standing to feel I’m cheating them.

Yeah well people are weird and not always consistent. From my point of view, people seem to care more about "immigrants taking our jobs" than they do about "foreigners staying at home and the factory was moved to where they already live" (not zero for the latter, this is just my opinion of the relative noise people seem to make).
