I really appreciate you sharing that and thanks.
this is a pretty controversial issue and I tried to preface my comments on that too and it's a little bit like politics where people on both sides might never agree. but I think it's good to try to open-mindedly look at all sides of the situation, not just at Microsoft but industry-wide and try to absorb the best we can.
I'm personally like really trying to keep a pulse on this this across the industry because there's a lot of changes related to recent Court. rulings as well as studies and papers that have come out and lay off trends and things all over the place that are causing some reason to notice in the dei industry.
but I think it's extremely important that all sides are presented and that people get to see it all. so thank you very much for sharing that.
