All the details were hashed out in posts here a few weeks ago. I won’t summarize because one side or the other will downvote me, but you can search HN.

- prepend 6y agoI read all of those and never got the details. I could never find the actual email she sent. Just the email she sent to the listserv. I did end up finding Pichai’s email and while it was bland corporate speak, I don’t understand how it was particularly damning. I’m not sure how anyone could expect Google to apologize when they don’t think they are wrong, or especially through a company wide email. If anything it’s a positive that the CEO is taking such interest and spending such energy on this.
