<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I just wanted to clarify at least from my standpoint – in no way do I view the sexual harassment allegations as any less serious than the NDA violations. I simply strongly believe that the NDA violations
are already proven and admitted to – which means they can be dealt with immediately – whereas because of the deeply serious nature of the sexual harassment allegations – these require far deeper and more careful investigations – investigations that are critical
and must certainly proceed.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>So I don’t think it’s a matter of urgency – its more a matter of what is proven and has already been admitted and people wanting that dealt with immediately

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I seem to get a general sense that the sexual allegations are a lesser concern to this community than the NDA violation. To me, both offenses carry the same weight and<br>
therefore should be treated with the same level of urgency.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">One of the reasons more women are not in this tech Industry even after studying and excelling in Technology and Engineering degrees is because of fear of their own safety.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">We must be very vocal on issues of sexual harassment especially in a male-dominated field.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, I know these allegations are pending investigations; so don't remind me of this; My one plea is that this issue is not swept under the rug and that it is looked at<u></u><u></u></p>

He doesn't seem to have been the person violating the NDA, so that part of the accusation doesn't relate to him.<br>
