Michael,
I usually agree with your posts and have enjoyed them over the years, but here we differ.

On Part 1. Putting Amy J. in charge I agree with you.

On Part 2. I completely disagree with you.

<<The trial court granted Intel's request and permanently enjoined Hamidi from sending e-mail to Intel employees at their work e-mail address. There was no request or order that would have prevented Hamidi from having communication with Intel employees at their private e-mail addresses. >>

The second half of the above statement gives the proper place for this disgruntled former Intel employee to send his e-mail.


The following is a great site for all the misfits that did not 'cut the mustard' at Intel
faceintel.com

Intel is a great company that knows the value of terminating employees that can be classified as misfits or deadwood. (You must meet very high standards to be an Intel employee).

Intel is handling the situation just fine. Hamidi should get a life...humble carl

Hi Michael, re:...A company afraid of a critic...

A couple of comments:

The article makes it sound like 6 single-recipient emails were sent by this guy Hamidi. In fact, he somehow got a (nearly) company-wide distribution list and shotgunned. I received one of the early ones before Intel IT started getting more clever about filtering.

He represents (founded) the FaceIntel organization that Carl already mentioned. While its possible he and his cohorts have some valid complaints, I can't see why Intel should be obligated to allow its resources to be used to advance their arguments and disrupt business activities. Carl is right, those who are interested will find their way to FaceIntel.com on their own and on their own time.

As to Intel being afraid of criticism, they don't seem to be going after that website, just after the guy's use of Intel resources.
