why limit yourself to 2 options .. well 1.x options?

well not "yourself" .. i mean more the geniuses working at google could probably figure out that there are more than two ways to approach "protesting".

being only a coli breh that's way beyond me :hubie: i'd probably stick to only 0.5 options.
Like I said, maybe they did fukk around with the systems and it wasn't reported on or hasn't been noticed yet. Because the "geniuses" at Google definitely would have known they'd get fired for publicly protesting Google

The Truth
you'd get fired.

and code/updates don't typically go through only one set of eyes.

:hubie:
Exactly

You can’t just purposely be an insider threat and not expect to keep your job.. especially something as reviewed as coding.

Mistakes in codes happen often, thats why there are security updates. If they found out you're purposely fukking up code, they probably won’t JUST fire you.

And like someone mentioned, they probably just not coders. The Coli really has a limited view and understanding of what the scope of IT really is.. same with regular employees (not IT related) and CEO’s (which was obvious during the out-sourcing phase America went through).

They would because the aforementioned peer review process plus the RCA's that would have been signed off on would make this impossible to prove in court. The Principal Lead would have to be willing to put the current work they have coming up aside and allocate developer time/energy /costs to maybe proving this happened. Also, they'd have to put all the developers in the organization under a performance review and revamp their peer review process.

Or they could just fire them, suppress this and let the money keep flowing in. Since as you said, there was a patch, life went on and shares are still up.

They were going to fire them in a few months anyway.

These tech companies been getting exposed.

The Market I shyt. In the "Good Ol Days" you would see folks just "mass resign" in protest cause they know another FAANG would be in the cut to hire them fast lol. These Companies know they have the upper hand right now.

They've been working hard to hurt these anti trust laws and keep the budgets of regulatory bodies low by supporting republican politicians.

Ronald Reagan and the two bushes were the best thing to happen to rich people in the last 80 years. These companies need to be broken up, but our politicians have money invested in them so it's against their own interest to actually try to regulate them.

We don't have true capitalism in this country. Just corporate socialism. They privatize the gains and then get us to foot the bill when they fukk up.

We get good products when these companies compete with one another and are forced to either be better on price or quality.

from the employee standpoint folks should have learned never bank on these companies to do right by you but the big tech kool aid was too sweet, so we are seeing the same that happened with all the top industries. Folks need to stack their bread and get out vs thinking the ride will be good forever and now your life and your dependents is depending on companies that don't care about you or the country as a whole.

I'd assume some of them arent actually in the coding part, probably not even on the cloud teams. But based on processes that I am asuming google code has, that code would be caught in a code review, and anybody could be a snitch, so I dunno if that's a way to go about it either. Unless you have the whole end to end development to prod deployment process covered by your own people


Yeah I'm thinking something like that would get slapped down in a pull request let alone with the principal reviewing it before a merge.

In any case they'd just roll back the changes after you got called out in a git blame

It'd be really hard to prove criminality over incompetence in software and it's really easy to make small breaking tweaks to a system that could look like total accidents.
If it’s so easy then you do it.
