Nvidia Petition to Reinstate Jensen Huang Tops 110,000 Signatures
Nvidia founder Jensen Huang resigned as president and CEO on November 12 amid allegations of extramarital affairs and espionage, prompting employees to launch a "Stand with Jensen" petition on November 14 demanding his reinstatement, which has surpassed 110,000 signatures. The petition makes three demands: reinstating Huang pending an independent investigation, ensuring a fair hearing, and publicly disclosing evidence and decision-making processes. Organizers argue Huang was forced out without due process despite 33 years of leadership building Nvidia into a global powerhouse. Signatories include 6,027 current and 1,124 former Nvidia employees, plus notable figures like Elon Musk, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, and Y Combinator's Garry Tan. Organizers confirmed they are removing unverified accounts, including one listed under the name "Huang Le."
