Ethereum Foundation sued after firing employee over mandatory 'Source Seppuku' suicide pact

scottslayer Can't wait to find out she was fired for more than just "protesting". Reply

user7007 I mean it's obviously not legally enforceable and they're literally saying code needs to be pushed and kept up to date. that's the job… and for crypto it's super important. lol, I'm with the company on this one. this is a cultural (fit) kinda red flag for both. if the person can't take a joke and doesn't seem to understand how important the rule is they're not a good fit. and if they don't want to work with crypto bros… don't apply for a job with crypto bros. honestly.

Jokes shouldn't be in official documents that you need to sign your acceptance to, especially not a joke saying someone should end themselves and then ask them to sign to say they will agree to do so.

bill001g Instead of protesting internally these people should have just hired a law firm and immediately sued with no pre warning. They could quickly get a restraining order preventing any implementation. Then for the years it takes for this to go to trial they would be protected from being fired even if they did something to deserve it. This is one they should have used the well litigated issues of freedom of religion. Suicide is against almost any religion. I am surprised their lawyers did not stop this even if it was 100% a joke and they told everyone ahead of time it was a joke. You have warning on almost every media warning that "suicide" might be discussed and stay away if that might be a problem for you. Reply

recycledelectrons S58_is_the_goat said: 80 people took this seriously? 😂 Before you say this will never be enforced, consider the current rash of "involuntary euthanasia" cases. People are being "involuntarily euthanised," sometimes because they signed a contract years or decades ago but have changed their mind. Here is one example: https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/woman-euthanized-against-her-will-after-husband-struggled-with-level-of-care-she-needed/ar-AA1US3eD Here is another example: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/involuntary-euthanasia-next-step-in-canada-s-descent-into-madness/ar-AA2dwAu8 Reply
