My thoughts as well - makes sense. It's going to continue to bring Google a headache, especially with conservatism on the apparent rise (i.e. still could have Trump in 2024).

Far easier to settle with a non-disclosure clause and an agreement to halt all public appearances. James Damore went on a campaign of visiting universities and other locations to discuss his views. Honestly, it was a good move, his case was weak, but the publicity seems to have paid off.

> still could have Trump in 2024

You mean you think he'll lose this election but come back to win the next one?

Wouldn’t put it past him. Berlusconi kinda did that, alternating wins and losses fairly regularly over 20 years (while his opponents changed every few years). I think he started younger than Trump though.

As an Italian, I would still prefer Berlusconi to Trump for presidency.

Still not my first choice (and not high on my preference list) but still better than Trump.
