Activision Blizzard is officially lifting its vaccine mandate for US corporate employees, and workers have announced they plan to walk out in protest. The company confirmed to The Verge that it has already ended the mandate, and A Better ABK, an organization of Activision Blizzard employees advocating for better working conditions, announced Friday that employees will walk out of work on April 4th at 1PM ET in protest.

Jessica Gonzalez, a former Activision Blizzard employee and a founder of A Better ABK, originally revealed that the company was changing its vaccine policy on Twitter Thursday evening. In a series of screenshots, she shared the text of an email sent by Brian Bulatao, the company's chief administrative officer. "Effective...

Google crackdown means you won’t be able to buy Barnes & Noble ebooks on Android

Starting next week, users of Barnes & Noble's Android app will no longer be able to buy digital books in the app, and it seems to be due to a Google Play policy deadline that's been more than a year and a half in the works. And it's not just Barnes & Noble that's affected; you aren't able to buy Amazon's Audible titles with a debit or credit card in the latest version of its Android app, either.

The changes appear to stem from Google's insistence that apps use Google Play's billing systems. Developers have long criticized Apple and Google for requiring the use of their own billing systems, in large part because of the so-called "app store tax" on many transactions.

Google updated its policies in September 2020 to clarify which types of...

The House Committee on Oversight and Reform has launched an investigation into Amazon's labor practices around severe weather events, focusing on the company's Illinois warehouse where six people died in a tornado strike last winter.

The committee is seeking documents and communication records from Amazon within the next two weeks, according to a letter signed by Reps. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and Cori Bush (D-MO) and sent Thursday to Amazon CEO Andy Jassy.

The letter cites reports that Amazon threatened to fire employees if they left work as the tornado bore down on the area and that delivery dispatchers weren't allowed to call drivers back without Amazon's approval, even when there was an active...

For the next three days, NASA is staging an elaborate dress rehearsal with its massive new rocket, the Space Launch System — practicing all of the major steps the agency will have to perform when the vehicle launches for the very first time. It's a major milestone for the rocket's development and one of the last major tests it must undergo before the vehicle can be cleared to fly sometime this summer.

The Space Launch System, or SLS, is the agency's new flagship rocket, designed to carry people and cargo into deep space. It's meant to play a lead role in NASA's Artemis program, the agency's initiative to send the first woman and the first person of color to the Moon by the mid-2020s. Capable of lifting nearly 60,000 pounds of cargo to...

Workers at an Amazon warehouse in New York City have voted to unionize, an historic first for workers at the e-commerce company. The final tally was 2,654 yes votes, and 2,131, with 67 challenges. The workers at the JFK8 fulfillment center in Staten Island will join the Amazon Labor Union, as the number of challenges is not sufficient to affect the outcome.

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) determined in January that unionization efforts at the facility had "reached a sufficient showing of interest" to hold an election. The facility employs roughly 5,000 people.

In a statement posted to its website Friday, Amazon said it was "disappointed with the outcome of the election because we believe having a direct relationship with the...

The US House of Representatives voted Friday to approve a bill that would decriminalize cannabis at the federal level. It's a first step toward making the drug legal and attempting to undo some of the damage caused by punitive drug laws, particularly among communities of color. The voting happened along party lines, with 220 votes in favor and 204 opposed. The bill faces an uncertain future in the Senate, but advocates say with Democrats controlling both houses of Congress, they're more hopeful that the legislation will finally become law.

The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (or MORE Act) would remove marijuana from the federal list of controlled substances and add a federal tax on cannabis products. It would also...
