    Big company uses union busting.

    This is not a new story.

    And it sucks that they can usually get away with it so often.

      These laws are intentionally toothless. Google will eat the fines and the feds can pretend they won something.

      Nothing will change until we start imprisoning executives who break the law.

        If the law is refusing to go after these people, why hope for imprisonment?

        Remember last time it took workers taking bosses hostage or worse to get results.

    That sucks. Not surprising, though. I hope the NRLB will fix their broken complain process. Right now, enforcement takes so long it’s a joke.

              Beehaw disables downvotes - so it may be that it shows from the instance, but technically it has “zero” downvotes.

                Oh, good point. I’ll bet the downvotes don’t federate at all from Beehaw. So if I downvoted it, I doubt anyone would see it, as I’m on my own private instance. And I would never see anyone else’s downvotes. But if someone on your own instance downvotes it, you would probably see it.
