Apple's whining about the NLRB case over their NDAs - pretending like NLRB & I are bullying them with lies about their work policies. Apple's claiming they've always been an open & supportive company, & never censor employees. (see left). But also Apple... (see right). www.hcamag.com/us/news/gene...

I asked NLRB to post copies of the complaint against Apple on their public website & they did today - but redacted it heavily. I told them I already shared the unredacted version & they haven't responded. Ya gotta tell me not to tweet or I'm gonna tweet. NLRB Complaint: www.nlrb.gov/case/32-CA-2...
"Apple could face significant legal & reputational consequences if the NLRB complaint is upheld... Apple is among a growing number of tech firms where union activity has gained traction as employees advocate for fair treatment & improved working conditions." - NASDAQ www.nasdaq.com/articles/app...
"NLRB claims Apple required employees to sign illegal confidentiality, non-disclosure & non-compete agreements; & imposed overly broad misconduct & social media policies. NLRB ask for Apple to rescind contested rules & notify its entire US workforce of their legal rights" onlabor.org/october-2-20...
Did you guys notice how they haven't even tried to dismiss the gender and disability discrimination claims? Apple's fighting just about everything else, but with the discrimination claims, Apple's like: yeah, ok, maybe we're a-holes.
I'm still very irritated with the spin & slant in most of these articles. However even if my claims were only about sex discrimination (not env/safety) & most of my claims were dismissed: I still survived 2 motions to dismiss from #BadApple & got a national NLRB complaint. That's pretty damn good 🔥
🧵 I was thinking about how much effort Apple put into smearing my lawsuit this week. They even got Reuters to lie about the nature of the case, omitting env & safety concerns. Then I remembered the TRW 5-Year Report is due. I contacted EPA tonight & they sent me a copy... It's not great for Apple. ⬇️
Finally, for your moment of zen - here's the one notice US EPA gave to the community about the Five Year Review for the Triple Site. They had it printed in a paper newspaper only (I told them that's dumb), & this is how the newspaper printed it. Page 186, next to a hunch-back court jester.
