An Irish commission ruled that a former Twitter executive's firing was unjust and ordered the company to pay over $600,000 in damages.

      I’m always baffled how US slavers fall for that trap again and again.

        The US doesn’t fall for anything; the pols are paid to not work for the people. It’s greed, not idiocy.

          How is it not idiocy to get burned by european labour laws time and time again? Greed makes stupid.
