- nitwit005 9y agoYes, the whole thing sounded illegal, so not all that surprising a result.
- opencl 9y agoI'm amazed they still get away with this after losing multiple class action lawsuits over it, but apparently losing the string of class action lawsuits over violating labor laws is cheaper than just following the labor laws or they would have started following them a long time ago.
