From the article:
>A little while after that my source was no longer employed by Google.
- pyre 13y agoI think the parent is questioning the ambiguity here. Did the employee leave voluntarily? Were they fired or 'forced to resign?' If they left Google on good terms, then it does seem unlikely.
- Jugurtha 13y agoI was referring to the lying part and the "I'm not 100% certain comment". It is very curious though. What was in those e-mails that could possibly identify the source. He works at Google, a tech company. The reporter works at TechCrunch (that covers tech companies). If anyone should know they must take extra care not to leave traces, it's a guy working for Google and another working for TecCrunch. It was reckless.
