    …for possibly being the target of a foreign intelligence operation. I don’t think they are trying to say he himself was intentionally doing something bad.

    Maybe the title should be changed?

      Foreign intelligence didn't force him to have an affair. He should be smart enough to spot a honeypot.

        So guilty until proven innocent?

          This is not a court.

          Seems like there are a lot of NVDA shareholders/fanboys in the comments rushing in to defend a billionaire.

      Not intentionally, but falling for a honey trap while cosplaying as a playboy is not a good look for an exec. Huang just showing he's a bit of a child at the wheel.

    It’s interesting one sees so many cases of intelligence services using female agents to target men in this way.

    Why doesn’t it happen the other way around as much? Why don’t you see intelligence services using male agents to target powerful women in a similar way as much?

    Sending women to spy on powerful man, oldest trick in the book...

    The fall of Jensen Huang was not on my bingo card for this year.

      "Fall" is a bit premature. He is too valuable to the company to fire.

        He is definitely on his way out. Name a single F500 CEO that has ever survived an affair admission

          Name a single F500 CEO who was in this situation while running a $5 trillion company

          Aye. It'll be 25% off the market cap tomorrow, as the location of the CEO's penis is the most important thing in business performance.

        Everything is possible. But I agree it's too early to call. But still...

    What a sticky situation to be in. it was strange to see the Nvidia spokespeople so outwardly supportive of the arrangement between them at first. I remember reading that they said the US government would have let them know if she was a threat. Also probably doesn't feel the best to be his wife or family right now. Hope this doesn't spell more problems for them politically. But if it does, it's probably warranted ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Hmm, looks like maybe he was "not consistently candid in his communications with the board"... Now where have I heard this before?
