This is great news. This is probably one of the companies that most desperately needed a union. Sure, I was laid off due to (bragged about) nepotism at my last dev job, and maybe a union would have helped, but according to my lawyer they didn't break any laws laying me off. I'm just glad I was able to bounce back and land on my feet in a higher paying job.

Even considering all of that, I find it hard to think of a company more desperately needing of a union than Activision/Blizzard.

EA alread uses paying customers as testers.

Now they'll just make that their official position.

Next week's news, Activision/Blizzard moves it's QA divisions to Poland. (Or implements "A.I.")
