More fired.

Sorry protestors, but I'm with Google on this one. Protest on your own time. Doing it on company time and company property means you aren't working. If you aren't working, why is Google employing you?

Now had they been protesting working conditions at Google, that would be different.

Good question. That's up to their boss, imho. I don't thing kneeling during the anthem is disruptive to anyone but some paper-skinned fans. If they decided to protest rather than make a play, tackle, whatever - absolutely.

Let's not go too far here. I agree with you completely in concept. However, there were a lot of people upset who lost loved ones, friends, body parts, etc. for that flag and what it represents. Point being, I understood the protest, but I also understood why people weren't thrilled with it.

It was a poorly devised scheme for attention devised by a dullard who thought she was a revolutionary and intellectual.

Leaked a whole bunch of technical stuff by mistake.

Lots of people are pissed that Google search isn't as great as advertised.

Google taking a Wiz?

It's the best I could come up with in 5 seconds.

I'm kind of surprised I've never heard of Wiz before.

I wonder how big Wiz is. Like a $23 billion valuation feels pretty significant, but Crowdstrike has a market cap of $90 billion.

Loses antitrust case over search.

They're saying this is a massive loss.

This isn't shocking that they're thinking about.

It's a little shocking that they weren't getting bribed enough to keep it from happening.

Maybe going public with it is their way of asking for better bribes?

Lame duck DOJ, let's see what the Republicans say.

Honestly they probably hate big tech too, bah.
