FB's chief of IT security resigned yesterday. Apparently not because he is the one being scapegoated, but because he's been arguing for greater cooperation and transparency in the Russia-Trump investigation. They basically fired his ass because he's the one person at that shithole company who stood up and said maybe let's try doing the right thing for once???

Edit: Just saw that you posted that elsewhere. Read the chatter before you speak, b_b!

My impression is that if you're just leaving now, you gave up on your scruples years ago. i've talked to a couple Facebook veterans and their zeal for altruism is the kind of shit you see at guys who got too close to death camps.

I'm sure his compensation package encouraged moral flexibility, to put it mildly. Although if the reporting is true that he finally had enough, then I'm also sure he's seen some depraved shit that we're yet, if ever, to find out about.

I'll bet if he's bailing before they want him to a lot of that compensation package is being left on the table.
