Technology makes a lot of these good intentioned laws hard to interpret. You cannot be fired for telling your co-workers that they are allowed to unionize. What if you work for a call center, commandeered an auto-dialer, and called every co-worker in the company with the same message? What about a popup on every page of an internal company website? Is someone allowed to stand up in the middle of the office with a megaphone and tell everyone they can unionize?

The law already covers situations like this, in terms of whether or not employees are allowed to use the internal technology tools of their employers in order to organize.

So what does the law say?
