The State of California has beefed up its legal battle with Activision Blizzard, and accused the firm’s HR department of shredding documents related to staff complaints and internal investigations.
These documents, California says, should have been kept pending its own legal investigation (thanks, Axios).
The state has also criticised Activision Blizzard for enforcing NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) which have hampered staff efforts to speak out, and for involving third-party legal firm WilmerHale to investigate – something California says “directly interferes” with its own efforts.
