That french story, though picked up by the paper here, is only one of many explinations (included it being 'an experiment'.) It does appear that this has been some sort of glitch, and not malicious-- but the fact that not a one of the employess can give the same answer, and that it's been happening since february, is quite annoying. Thank goodness the company is backpeddling, however it happened.
