- _iyig 8y agoI’m also a Google employee. The overwhelming majority of internal opposition to Dragonfly has been civil and considerate. There have been uncivil remarks and accusations by several who support Dragonfly. (EDIT: I should clarify that these rude voices are a minority, on all sides of the issue.) Please keep discussion of this issue substantive.
- fizwhiz 8y agoDo you have any links you can point me to that demonstrate the pro-Dragonfly folks going through similar lengths to "have themselves heard"? What part of my statement seems unsubstantive?
- _iyig 8y agoYou frame the anti-Dragonfly contingent as “trying incite outrage through leaks, mobs, grandstanding, moral posturing and what not.” This generalization is inaccurate and non-substantive.
- hueving 8y agoRight, it's best to keep those discussions amongst everyone who stands to make heaps of cash by ignoring nagging morality. This is why in any legal proceedings against companies they only allow the jurors and judge to be made up of employees or major shareholders.
