Activision Blizzard accused of spying on protesting workers

an unfair labor practice charge accusing the game developer of illegally surveilling workers during a July walkout protest over gender inequity. The company also denied access to a chat channel discussing working conditions and otherwise cut off internal avenues for discussing labor, the CWA said.

In statements to Engadget, Activision Blizzard generally dismissed the assertions. It said the chat accusations were false, and that the CWA's long-running characterization"willfully ignores the facts" while preventing the company from protecting workers against abuse. The company also argued that its only overseers for walkouts were public relations staffers standing at a"respectful distance" to answer questions from the press.
