Lied or didn’t bother to fully read the law.

stopthatgirl7 OP , 11 months ago to worldnews in Justice Department Sues SpaceX for Discriminating Against Asylees and Refugees in Hiring

This is literally from the Department of Justice, so I’m assuming they know the laws about these things.

stopthatgirl7 OP , 11 months ago to worldnews in Justice Department Sues SpaceX for Discriminating Against Asylees and Refugees in Hiring

From the link:

In job postings and public statements over several years, SpaceX wrongly claimed that under federal regulations known as “export control laws,” SpaceX could hire only U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents, sometimes referred to as “green card holders.” Export control laws impose no such hiring restrictions. Moreover, asylees’ and refugees’ permission to live and work in the United States does not expire, and they stand on equal footing with U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents under export control laws. Under these laws, companies like SpaceX can hire asylees and refugees for the same positions they would hire U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. And once hired, asylees and refugees can access export-controlled information and materials without additional government approval, just like U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents.

Completely agreed, especially on the last point. There was a risk of the S holding future current-gen games back if they had to run on parity with the X, and now devs know there’s wiggle room. This is very good news.

Thing is, it could be a good idea if they didn’t have such strict parity rules - play the game, but not necessity with the exact same features (ie, disabling split screen, but still allowing co-op). Heck, that could even have been a selling point to get people to “upgrade” to an X.
