“So not only will you bear the brunt [of your decision], but also your company, and future companies that you work for. And that's absolutely in the back of our minds."

"It's not just the Hollywood issue, it's not just the tech issue, it's not just the basketball or the sports issue, or various other industries. ... It's all across the board. To get products and services into that market, there are certain rules you have to play...
