Could you please clarify in what way? I think your accusation that she's lying is wildly off base, but the difference is that I cited an external source to validate my insinuation.
Multiple other, even white, employees called out this same SVP. Your usage of the phrase "Not being racially sensitive enough" strikes me as a bizarre euphemism for "racism", which it would appear you don't see as an issue.
"are just per personal opinion about what she doesn't like."
The field of AI Ethics is an amalgam of computer science and moral philosophy. What do you think value judgements are?
What are those "personal opinions" and things she "doesn't like" and why?
It seems you're using a lot of euphemisms to hide some very unpleasant truths about your world view.
Is that accurate? I don't think victims of discrimination actually make from such settlements, especially compared to the salaried positions of their abusers, measured against loss of income from blacklisting and lasting damages from abuse. I think the myth of "big discrimination payout" is designed specifically to pre-emptively discredit whistleblowers (especially survivors of sexual/emotional abuse).
> was this the plan all along?
Would you say this about Larry Nassar's victims? (sadly, yes, when it was just the first few women, you probably would). I'd like you to reflect on this comment next time Blizzard's abusive culture is back the news and you're wondering why women abused in the workplace are turning to suicide over legal mediation.
You can choose to look away, but never again can you say "you didn't know."

> Abuse disguised as a joke happens when abusers make comments about you that they want other people to believe are funny, but you know they are threats and put-downs in disguise. They’re sick personal jokes between the two of you. Only you know the real story behind his “humor” so friends may wonder why you cry or become so upset when he teases and jokes...
Abusers tend to use sarcastic humor and make fun of other people – but they rarely if ever poke fun at themselves.

Strange how confident you are in accusing her of lying. Almost like you have this strategy down to a science. Can't imagine why.
> I see people expressing their concern about seeing their boss using the app, etc. and I just cannot relate.
Here's a situation I ran into: I have a stalker ex with whom I went no-contact ages ago. Years have gone by, I've been lucky enough to not hear from them in a while, it finally seems like the nightmare is over. They forgot about me and moved on to other things.
Then, they sign up for Signal. The app, for no discernable reason, sends them a message informing them that I'm also using it. Now I'm back in their head. I blocked their number on Signal, but I'm seeing "X viewed your profile" messages on LinkedIn, so it looks like the stalking frenzy might start again, all because Signal wants to be Whatsapp.
Why? It's one thing to let any signal user message me, it's another to actively remind people that I'm still around and reachable using it. SMS does not do this.
