I welcome this. The software industry should not turn a blind eye to this issue in the US. Solidarity.
Is there anyone in PR or Marketing here that can explain the business sense for something like this? Serious question: Aside from "the right thing to do" how does a decision like this effect the business in the short, and long term?
Round of applause to the people behind this gesture.
They should not do politics. And if they start listing names, maybe include all the statistics. This is dishonest.
The fact that you call it "politics" shows that it doesn't affect you. This is literally life and death to a large portion of the population.
I don't think it's correct to say that calling it politics is somehow demeaning (however it's meant by the OP). Politics is really about the values our society wants to live by, so I think it is absolutely about politics! If we want our societies to care about the lives of all their citizens, to dismantle oppressive systems, and bring justice to the oppressed, then there is no way to do this apart from politics.
You lost us at "Politics is really about the values our society wants to live by"
What do you think politics is/are?
It's a mark of respect for individuals who have lost their lives. There's nothing dishonest about that.
But what's so special about this case? Only the outage is. And the politics. And the virtue signalling. Many people died before and after.
This is great!
