Wow. They're finally big enough to be pissing off labor unions.
While not really having to do much with their games, it's interesting to note that Blizzard is currently undergoing a protest by their local carpenters union.
Unsatisfied with Blizzard Entertainment's recent hiring of independent carpentry contractor All Star Installations in Irvine, Carpenters Local 1506 has strategically (albeit somewhat puzzlingly) staged a miniature "hired gun" protest outside Universal Music Group's Santa Monica office, a highly visible locale tangentially connected within the Vivendi family. It's always fun to see a protest unfold, but something's missing in the scene above given the whirlwind events of the last two weeks.
