What a bad headline. Google employees are protesting the really crappy way that the company handles claims of sexual harassment. To say this is about individualism is trivializing to the point of being irresponsible.

Really terrible article overall. "The walkouts followed a New York Times report". Indeed...

They are criticizing through collective action. That is a news worthy thing.

This is an opinion piece disguised as news.
