As before, I wager it's at most a tolerable fine and a year and a

some props for relatively strongly opening his mouth on mostly
opinion only and being about the only such CEO among megacorps
to do so. Where are the ones on Snowden's PRISM list saying
"Hey gov be tryna troll us and u like dat'?
Any CEO publicly cop to that secret paper yet?

No shit. So treat all the Secret Charmin that chafes you the
wrong way like the toilet paper it is.

Kind of is happening in another 'theatre of action' today.

Protests at international airports all over the US.

Dulles/DC, JFK, OHare/Chicago, SFO, LAX, Logan/Boston, must be others ... but DO NOTE that Donald Trump wrote an Executive order to cause a Muslim Ban (Muslim ONLY... religion-based) from certain countries, all of whom we're bombing and none of which has been involved in any terrorist incident in the US in any known history, and HE NEVER EVEN RAN IT THOUGH OFFICIAL LEGAL CHANNELS!

As if an Executive order is some sort of Monarch's Decree, and all the armed thugs America's tax dollar pay for MAY VERY WELL BE detaining, deporting, and harassing immigrants unconstitutionally.

You know what that makes them?

Brownshirts. Traitors. Everyone knows it. No counterprotesters. Hiding like the bigoted racist slime they are.

IF the Executive Order turns out to be illegal and Trump never ran it through channels causing immigrants to be persecuted... Abso-fucking-lutely impeachable.

Tech checks in on this. It hits them hard in their employee base, and they ARE NOT HAPPY.

Any crack in the state's armor, it's tech industry alliances, is a gooood crack.
