    Thank you for the reply!

    I am not wholy convinced by this. For one Whittaker is not Signal. Whittaker as part of Signal will represent Signal’s position, not the other way aroudn.

    Secondly, opposing sexual misconduct, LGBTQ-rights, and opposing AI are not inherent political standpoints. They can linger broadly on a political spectrum.

    Ignoring my first point, and assuming that Signal has absorbed Whittaker’s standpoints; has AWS or Amazon as a whole and as a company a stance against the points Whittaker (personally) advocates for?

      whittaker is pretty clearly for freedom, while bezos is for his employees peeing in a bottle because they can’t afford to take a break.

      i think the difference is pretty clear and if you are discussing in good faith, there is no way you don’t see it. if you are just sealioning, then bye.

        I don’t know why you suddenly have to respond like that. I merely wonder how you came to the conclusion that they are each other’s opposition, because generally you separate personal opinions from corporate policy.

          how you came to the conclusion that they are each other’s opposition

          this is how: whittaker is pretty clearly for freedom, while bezos is for his employees peeing in a bottle because they can’t afford to take a break

          because generally you separate personal opinions from corporate policy

          i don’t believe that to be true. unless you are true sociopath, you try to find a company, or an employee, that aligns with your own values. hence why vegan will be unlikely to seek a position as a CEO of slaughterhouse, inc, nor will board of directors of the slaughterhouse prefer such candidate.
