Someone should probably tell the rich that workers banding together to present formal address of grievances is the alternative we worked out a long time ago to breaking down the factory owner's front door and beating him to death in front of his family? I feel like they forgot.

Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me): CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff. A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies. I know you didn't get that notice.

Opinion | Twitter randos dragging billionaires is cancel culture. Billionaires buying Twitter to end all criticism of them and their companies is free speech.

Cloudflare's whining about being an "infrastructure provider" is particularly hollow when you consider that AWS, orders of magnitude larger, just has a blanket ban on all of this sort of thing: aws.amazon.com/aup/
