On: Fired Google Engineer Loses Diversity Memo Challenge

The firing was over his methods (and the adverse impact they directly had on the broader organization), not his opinions.

As far as I know his methods were to post his document to an internal mailing list specifically for feedback on potentially controversial topics[1]. This seems a "by the book" method (although I am surprised such a mailing list exists).

Someone ELSE then disseminated it more widely (Internally and externally).

[1] I cannot find any citations on this right now though, google-fu appears to be failing me.

Accompanied by all sorts of inflammatory dialogue and generally aggravating behavior.
