NYT Tech Workers Strike Threatens Election Night Coverage

TL;DR Summary
Striking New York Times tech workers have created a custom "Strike Edition" Connections puzzle to allow fans to play without crossing the digital picket line. This initiative comes as the New York Times Tech Guild requested readers to avoid NYT games during their strike. The puzzle was made using a site developed by Anthony Salazar, which also hosts a free archive of NYT's Connections puzzles, potentially raising intellectual property concerns. Salazar is open to removing the archive if requested but intends to keep the puzzle creator active.
