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?

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

You do realise that “licensing” your comments like this 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.

Given the fact that comments on Lemmy end up on thousands of distributed federated servers, each with their own privacy policy, means that comments are de-facto public domain.

That question/point is answered in the link that I supplied above.

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