Oh, I see how it is. They keep killing and killing, but we hit ONE CEO and shit hits the fan. Alright, then.
Don’t forget your place.
TBF Luigi did leave a LOT of evidence of foul play. Such as engraved bullet casings, etc.
Probably any bullet casing, engraved or otherwise, might indicate “foul play.”
Especially if it occurred in a public area with security cameras.
You misspelled “warranted killing”.
The bullet casings for evidence of the killing being warranted and not foul play
Which judge signed the warrant?
Its crazy how fast you die once you blow that whistle. All out class war on one side.
So many whistleblowers ending up dead. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence. Hundreds of coincidences.
Can’t we try and fund our own armed compounds for whistleblowers?
Especially the ones that benefit working class cause like this guy - because AI stealing our data is a threat to all of us.
You gotta set up a dead man’s switch (not literal give the evidence to a lawyer or do a deposition or whatever). Do that before you blow the whistle and announce that at the same time.

It’s all about probabilities.
Truth is proof, and the article contains no details to establish this absolutely. So, we are left with supposition.
This wasn’t an isolated man with nothing to live for - while his career in AI was over, he’d left it to pursue a moral agenda. Suicide is not likely until AFTER he testifies and discharged this.
The fact he supposedly had documents and a testimony that could heavily harm a company is enough to make it very likely his death was the cost of doing business - why pay a billion in a court case when you can pay a million for a professional hit?
On the balance of probabilities, it looks more likely to be like foul play. As they say, Epstein didn’t kill himself.
Exposing billionaires is more fatal than cancer.
Bill Burr has this take that corporations are the mobsters of yore, they just kneecap or whack people in different ways because the law is on their side now. Until it’s not.
So? He was Poor! Let me know when a RICH PERSON dies and THEN I’ll care!
Why not establish armed compounds where we the people keep whistleblowers safe?
Some private rancho in Texas with armed guards and lots of cameras?
Clearly gov is failing to protect them.
Whistleblowers dying is not unintended…

Lemme see, suicide from two gunshots to the back of the head?
Conservative conspiracy theories: “HA! What idiots!”
Lemmy conspiracy theories: “HA! Told ya!”
Maybe ask some fucking questions?!
after receiving a call asking officers to check on his well-being
Who called and why? This seems extraordinarily important.
“currently, no evidence of foul play.”
OK. Let’s see what comes out.
The MO here seems to be pressuring people in to suicide. It’s been done. So…? What do we know along those lines?
SWAT doesn’t need to know who called in order to go full Rambo on random citizens. Rich people pull the strings. They don’t believe in accountability.
They do not send in SWAT for wellness checks
In a Nov. 18 letter filed in federal court, attorneys for The New York Times named Balaji as someone who had “unique and relevant documents” that would support their case against OpenAI. He was among at least 12 people — many of them past or present OpenAI employees — the newspaper had named in court filings as having material helpful to their case, ahead of depositions.
Unless stuff starts happening to those people, or there is some detail I missed in the article, it is much more plausible that this was suicide than some corporate hit, let alone one carried out using police violence? Is that what you were implying?
It wasn’t me but someone here called it
I was talking to my cousin (journalist) a while ago and she told me how she was supposed to interview a whistleblower for Anaheim PD. I snarkily commented something like, “yeah but let me guess he shot himself twice in the back of the head” and she alarmingly said “…yeah, how did you know?”
I’m surprised that she would be surprised by that, it’s like the most obvious thing ever lol
they were only 26. fuck sakes.
I know this is off topic and not really that important but i can never stop myself from pointing this out about a commonly misused phrase.
Its not fuck sakes, because a fuck doesn’t sake
Its fuck’s sake, because the sake belongs to the fuck.
Its fuck’s sake, because the sake belongs to the fuck.
Laughed for like a solid 2mins. Well done, fellow Lemming.
Language is liquid, baby. you can stop evolution
I can??
If you wanna
never heard of that before.
My mid 20s were when I hit a major mental breaking point. If I hadn’t had a good support network of friends close to me and family I could turn to…
26 is old enough to feel like you’ve lost everything and that nothing will ever be good again. He left a good career for his morals and lost all hope of employment from it.
Yeah, but they were not even 30 yet…dammit these corps.
Idk everyone is doing the "he was killed but
The medical examiner’s office determined the manner of death to be suicide and police officials this week said there is “currently, no evidence of foul play.”
Isn’t it possible the guy was troubled and just actually killed himself?
Can’t see the forest for the trees.
The problem isn’t that this guy might have killed himself. The problem is that the death rate of whistleblowers is very high. That makes every individual case much more suspect, and should be held to higher standards of scrutiny. And they aren’t. So we complain.
I’m just saying assuming this was a murder seems premature. Thinking this is sus makes more sense
Sure, sure. Epstein surely did hang himself.
He was a king pedo going to prison for the rest of his life and had tried kill himself before. I definitely would’ve tried to kill myself given the chance tbh
If you read up on that incident though, so many things had to go wrong for him to have an opportunity to do it while locked up that it’s really hard to not consider foul play no matter what the prison or the government says about it.
Right. At best, he wasn’t killed, he was just intentionally given the tools and time to do so.
There’s a difference between him having been murdered and giving him the opportunity to kill himself. Second case would mean that he actually did hang himself
When you consider the billions that are at stake in cramming “AI” into computers, cars, phones, agit-prop generation and military hardware, I there’s a non-zero chance that his death wasn’t accidental. Maybe a second coroner’s opinion is in order.
All just a series of unfortunate coincidences.
Found Daniel Handler’s account.
“You take out on of mine…”
“I take out one of yours.”
First thing I thought.
