I've seen this posted a couple of times in comments, it seems like a reasonable investigation in to the recent shit storm

I usually actively avoid engaging in anything to do with US politics as it's pointless getting depressed by an awful situation I have zero control over; this post is not about fueling arguments or making us all feel worse, just determining if a useful tech company has gone to shit (TL;DR: probably not).

Great article, thanks for sharing.

I think it was ultimately stupid what they did, and how they handled it but this article puts a lot of my uneases at rest.

Edit I've seen the other comment on this post, seems more sensible.
