> > By the same token I shouldn’t hold accountable Google or FB engineers who are just trying to make a living. > No you shouldn't - they need to put food on their families' tables just like you do. I disagree. They have any option who to work for, as you and I, and they chose to work for unethical companies. They don't need to put food on their families' table. I am not judging as everyone makes their own choices, but it's good to hold them responsible. Maybe I would have done the same or do so in the future. But I wouldn't expect people to feel empathy for me when shit hit the fan.

> They have any option who to work for Many people don't. Tech interviews are unforgiving. Some people have to take the opportunities they get offered to them. Even if you can pass an elite Google interview one time that doesn't mean you'd get past the interview anywhere else. > They don't need to put food on their families' table. Their families can starve? > I wouldn't expect people to feel empathy for me when shit hit the fan Hows about we all practice empathy with everyone, no matter what good or bad choices they've had to make to survive in the past?
