If they acquire a company they might need approval due to anti-trust.

If the people instead just quit their jobs and start working at Google … nothing to see here.

And everyone who didn't get a Google employee badge agreed because "x%" was big enough?

  • I guess VCs can't force founders to stay (the only penalty for joining Google is loosing some/all of their Windsurf equity, but I'm sure they chose what's better for them), and employees didn't need to agree (they have no vote).

    • I can guess a few angles and causes for legal action. I'm wondering what the deal was to incentive people not to take that legal action.
