He's giving into his daughter from what I've heard.

That is plenty humiliating. I'm pretty sure there was an ultimatum from like Google+Facebook to accept the cult of political correctness, or be cast aside. They would have had a replacement for his role ready, and the threat of a persistent smear campaign if he refused.

His employer is the Linux Foundation. It's run by most of the big SV tech companies.

Yes and I've also heard about a conspiracy of him falling for a #metoo honeypot trap by some SJW feminist. Very spooky indeed if true.
