Activision Asks Shareholders to Vote to Stay in the Dark [May 03, 2022, 11:08 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Axios reports that Activision Blizzard is advising shareholders to vote
against a proposal by New York State that Activision Blizzard issue an annual
report on workplace abuse, harassment, and discrimination. The company has faced
multiple lawsuits over such issues, and clearly would prefer to move on. In
another effort to avoid increased accountability, Activision is also urging a
no-vote on a proposal to allow employees to add a member of the AFL-CIO to its
board of directors. Here's the outline of New York's proposal:
Why it matters: The proposal, first made in February, is a push for transparency about the wrongs at a scandal-racked company.
- Such proposals often fail, but last year Microsoft shareholders voted for such a report over the objections of that company’s board.
New York's proposed report would include:
- The “total number of pending sexual abuse, harassment or discrimination complaints the company is seeking to resolve.”
- The amount of money Activision spent settling misconduct claims in the past three years.
- The number of pending misconduct complaints facing the company.

They were greedy, immature dicks, they weren't killing and eating babies.
Hear that? Sexual harassment and quid pro quo is A-OK so long as you aren't killing and eating babies!
A day without video games is like... just kidding, I have no idea.
