Appalling interference in the election by yet another Tech giant. Why isn't this regulated?
Is it interference? Where are the free speech absolutists to defend this case?

Total annihilation is possible for the first time ever if Trump remains. Seriously. That's why scientific American, NY times and many others for the first time in history took sides.
You have a point, but you should really look for examples more interesting than a paper that has endorsed every D running for President since the 60s.

#13This is the same guy who said "We don't hire .NET developers"[0], so he clearly has no problem going on incendiary rants that make people angry. While I personally agree with this particular message, it's entirely inappropriate to send it over this channel. Especially considering most end-users, such as myself, aren't paying customers, but are employees of paying customers. I doubt this is going to trigger enough upr…
They sent this to employees ofa company? I would immediately fire this vendor if this is correct, regardless of my political views.
It exposes way too much liability to have a vendor you hire lobbying your employees without your knowledge or consent.

Are you threatening a terrorist attack if Trump wins or is there something clear and obvious that makes you say that 4 more years of Trump is a credible likely cause of total annihilation?

#15Ballsiest move from a CEO I've seen so far. I'm curious as to what this will do to their PnL.

Tech companies might not be upset by the message but I can't imagine that all of their clients are Silicon Valley tech companies.

I don't see how this is interference but certainly could be considered an in-kind donation, which does carry with it certain regulatory obligations.

Wildly inappropriate and an absolute dealbreaker. Expensify has been entrusted with employee contact information for the purpose of providing their contracted service. It's not available to them to send out any message they please.
I can't even imagine considering doing this myself.

Not so much... it would be truly ballsy if the CEO endorsed Trump.

So would it be fine if zuckerberg sent out mass message to vote for biden on facebook, instagram, or whatsapp right in your inbox? Blatant misuse of company data.
