I know, was that supposed to be a revelation?

I work at a place full of xooglers and other ex-faangs, and get the benefits of working with talented people without these kinds of scandals.

No, more to point out that it's a weird concern to have about an internal tool used by a company that uses their code to exert huge, global political influence. It's a strangely specific grain of rice to make an issue of.

That is such a stretch I'd need a yogi to grasp it all.

There are plenty of ways to protest that are just as effective as a pop up that only appears on a specific site for a specific lawyer that don't involve messing with work code.
