Seeing the name of Pedro domingos and how he got cancelled for expressing his views in the recent incident involving Google and timnit gebru, makes me think it's probably related to that.

How specifically was he canceled? I ask because googling him he seems gainfully employed... are his papers being rejected? Did something else happened?

What consequences has he suffered? It looks like he's still employed. He's still tweeting.
