> I believe it was the affair with the married subordinate that was the real problem. There's a huge amount of legal exposure for NVidia with that

For someone not familiar with American law: How the fuck is that a bigger problem than the Chinese spy ?

Is there any explicit rules at NVidia forbidding that in a code of conduct somewhere ?

Being fired seems like a serious consequence.

You really think Nvidia would let Huang go (without a replacement matching his skills, experience and knowledge in the field) because he cheated with an employee? It is the spy affair while Huang promoted an open export policy.

Plus thanks to Huang, Nvidia is now under investigation by federal agencies.

None of them care about a CEO cheating.

Also, being fired from the company you founded is a serious consequence.

"There is zero possibility than Jensen Huang faces any serious consequences for this."

Hah. He doesn't have a prenup. That's going to lead to serious enough consequences for him in divorce court.
