Having read the whole thing, man Jeff Bezos has a great deal of courage.
It helps to be backed by untold wealth but here is a guy who stands tall in the face of ghastly behaviour and in the face of deep personal embarrassment.
+1 Bezos.
- hn_throwaway_99 8y agoI'm going to push back against this characterization as "ghastly personal behavior". For one, it's not clear if he and his wife were already separated, at least at a personal level, before this affair. But this general idea that it's somehow "ghastly" to send a paramour love notes and sexually suggestive pictures is a sad remnant of our puritanical history, and the sooner we rid ourselves of this notion, the better.
- prawn 8y agoThe ghastly behaviour is a description of the extorters, surely?!
- dlgeek 8y agoI think GP's "ghastly behaviour" (seems like you inserted the "personal" unless it was an edit?) is referring to AMI rather than Bezos.
- auganov 8y agoThe status of his marriage is the key thing here. And there's plenty indicating he is very much a classical cheater. Whatever the right adjective is, I'd definitely pick a negative one. The way he cheated only makes an already dirty act so much nastier.
- rsynnott 8y agoIf they're separated, then the status of their marriage is irrelevant.
