Amazon uses agents from a company named Pinkerton to spy on their workers: https://www.vice.com/en/article/5dp3yn/amazon-leaked-reports...

No idea if it has any relation to the original Pinkerton strike-breakers, but using that name is pretty callous given its history.

It is one and the same.

What's more is that it isn't some sort of ironic twist of circumstances, it's just that there aren't a lot of organizations you can call for that kind of work at scale.
