#3Recently the board voted against recommendations made by employees to increase diversity. It's pretty clear what priority the Google board gives to diversity, which is their right even if wrong.

How is it wrong? Who are you to know better what is good for Google than the Google executives?

#8Sloppy reporting:
"Just over 25% of leaders were women in 2018, up nearly 5% since 2014."
Actually it's up 4.7 percentage points, or about 25% (not 5%).

#9People often write about how outreach efforts such as Google's are illegal. They are not. There's a very specific law that encourages it. I learned about it because Karen Sandler told me about it when she explained to me why Outreachy went from outreaching to women to also outreach to specific US minorities. It's the only change that this US law allowed.
