The breaking news part seems to me to be the part where they got the memo saying it was basically an understood policy. That is true about many jobs, but it usually isn't spelled out so clearly, certainly not for a company the size of Google. I think it's good for workers to know for a fact that they're being exploited at every possible opportunity.
