    They should name their union Unionvision

      Too close to Univision

      They should just get to keep the Activision name, while the company flounders into obscurity.

    Activision User Research Union-CWA is the first group of video game user researchers to form a union

    So what exactly about their users do they research?

      You do realise that licensing your comment doesn’t actually do anything, right? If that actually worked, you could license the comments under a license where every reader has to pay $100 if they read it.

        That question is answered in the link that I supplied.

        There also a comment from a mod in there that you should read.

      user research is a common design and marketing term to mean “identify consumption preferences”
