It's always hard to get a feel for how many people in these stories are currently employees. I've worked enough places that I've even half agreed with some passionate folks, but wanted nothing to do with their exact actions and escalation. Lots of situations where "You can't treat us this way <insert issue>, we're going to <something curious>!" And I'm more along the line "Man I just want the schedule to come out a bit earlier... this isn't worth going to the mattresses for at this point." I recall when stories of google employees forming groups with some interesting points of view were circulating and folks on HN who claimed to work at google basically indicated something like "Naw it's just a few people in that chat and everyone else avoids them." That's not a commentary on these people's opinions or views, more on how hard it is to know what IS going on inside a company and the real range of views of those employees.
