Why in the first place someone was screencapping someone's calendar? Were they trying to organize some impromptu meeting with a hihger-up? Who was scared exactly? How did this came to light?

I mean if the recently fired folks tried to pressure some other group, that's bad, and it seems it has nothing to do with unionizing. But if they were trying to catch some elusive exec to have a statement from, that could be different.

But there are no specifics anywhere, just "Google bad, union good" or "stalkers bad"

Agreed that there's not enough context to say why screencapping happened, what happened to said screencaps, and how all of this turned into scared employees.

I currently perceive Google's note as if it were a press release; treat with appropriate scepticism. We'll have to see if more information comes to light.
