"internal culture of self-righteous virtue-display totalitarianism"

So *MANY* levels of "wrong" involved, I don't know where to begin [snarking].

I'm not surprised to see Google fire these people for doing what Google does to EVERYONE. Why? because "Google reserves the right" and its an EXCLUSIVE right, in their eyes, to spy on EVERYONE.

But employees need to keep in mind, the job is an exchange of money for valuable work. It's not a crusade, a mission, political activism, one feudal land warring against another, yotta yotta.

Still, the fact that they were UNION ORGANIZERS does give me some pause for thought...
