That might have been me, since my Silicon Valley company halted all intersectionality/critical race theory trainings and emails from our executives about BLM. Before, we had executives recommending books about white privilege and anti-racism that we could buy on the company’s dime. We also held segregated trainings after Fenty Floyd aka a violation of the Civil Rights Act. It has all stopped.
Any company with
FedRAMP certification spent millions in time and resources in achieving that status. Google, Amazon, Zoom, Slack, Crowdstrike, Oracle, Microsoft, Citrix and many more have FedRAMP certifications.
The
consumer tech companies like Facebook often have government contracts and obligations that must be upheld via subcontractors.
Remember how fucked the Obamacare website was?
It cost the feds over $500 million in a five year contract to fix.
Needless to say, there is an absurd amount of money in federal contracts and none of these companies want to lose a chance at them.
