I apologize for causing you to have this knowledge.
@Hyolobrika there was a fracas over some paper that was either (unclear) Bad, or Bad For Google, they demanded she withdraw it, she demanded the names and reasoning of everyone involved in the request, and said if she didn't get them, she would quit. Google replied <Your terms are acceptable.>
What was she fired over?
