A good way to get fired: Be careful of anarchist websites

If you ever read LabourStart you may have seen the article about how careful people have to be when publishing to radical websites. Yesterday libcom finally published an article on one company, Lionbridge, today the company wants to fire the union organizer, assuming he's the author of the article and that "confidential information" was "leaked". Fact is that all that, and more info was dug up by me, using the internet. Real bullshit. Of course we'll fight it, but typical repression for political views.

This might do better in the news section laure. I've not seen the labourstart article do you have a link?
I think a few of us here have had to become a bit more careful online at times.

Lionbridge has a tendency for an extremely Orwellian business culture where everybody spies on everybody else, so this is not surprising at all.

This doesn't mean it would itself respect the agreements with its temp workers. They don't. The LIOX will wipe their ass with any agreement they make with anybody.

The only good idea is that everybody avoids Lionbridge.
