Google Fires Four Employees Active in Labor Organizing
------------------------------------------------------

Google has fired four employees who had been active in labor organizing
inside the tech giant. One of the fired workers, Rebecca Rivers, had
objected to Google's bid to collaborate with Customs and Border
Protection, or CBP. Another one of the fired workers, Laurence Berland,
had protested hate speech on You Tube, which is owned by Google. The
company claims all four workers were fired for violations of Google's
data security policies.
