None | Google Accused of Creating Spy Tool to Squelch Worker Dissent

'The author of the review described the extension as “creepy” and suggested, apparently in jest, that the Chrome extension should be named, “not-a-trojan-horse_dot_exe”. '

'It’s not known if that tool is same as the Chrome extension related to employee calendars and meetings. '

'On an internal Google message board, employees have posted satirical memes mocking the plan. '

'The team approved the release of the tool, but noted that there were “a number of concerns with respect to the culture at Google,” according to the employee’s memo. '

'The concerns were outlined in a memo written by a Google employee and reviewed by Bloomberg News and by three Google employees who requested anonymity because they aren’t authorized to talk to the press. '
