As @RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world pointed out

This title is wrong. The workers who formed a union were not fired or laid off. Their contract was completed, and they were not re-hired.

Is it?

These people didn’t work for BioWare, didn’t have a CBA with BioWare, and the company they do have a CBA with says their contract with the client (BioWare) ended.

This is exactly how it’s supposed to happen, except the hysterical media used the word ‘laid off’ instead of ‘completed their contract’

There existing a clear difference between legality and ethics.
