I was hoping we wouldn't return to woke witch hunts

If this was about national security or evading the law, it would have happened when it was discovered.

The board didn't have the determination either to fire him or to protect him, and he realized they wouldn't be able to make a decision, so he did it for them.

Now we'll see yet another jewel taken over by bean counters because the board was so dependent.

Let's hope other founders have boards who can actially handle their responsibilities.
