Open Letter Asking NVIDIA to Reinstate Jensen Huang Passes 115,000 Signatures
More than 115,000 people have signed "Stand with Jensen," an open letter asking NVIDIA's board to bring back Jensen Huang as CEO. Huang resigned on November 12, with CFO Colette Kress stepping in as interim CEO. At the time of writing, the campaign site lists over 5,900 signers as current NVIDIA employees, about 1,100 as former employees, and more than 62,000 as shareholders. The site notes those affiliations are self-reported and unverified. Elon Musk said on X that he signed the letter, and Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney is also listed among the signers.
The letter asks the board to reinstate Huang while an independent investigation runs, give him a fair hearing, and publicly explain its decision. The organizers argue he was removed "without meaningful due process." The resignation came days after the board opened an investigation into reports that Huang was the target of a foreign intelligence effort through a relationship with a suspected Chinese spy. Huang admitted to infidelity in a November 8 email to staff, and a second relationship with an NVIDIA executive was reported shortly after.
While Huang certainly has support, new allegations have also surfaced since his exit. The Wall Street Journal has reported that Huang pushed NVIDIA to invest in AI startups and smaller cloud providers that would then buy its GPUs, apparently to absorb an "avalanche" of chips ordered from TSMC. Kress reportedly argued for scaling back these deals in an August meeting. NVIDIA has previously rejected the circular financing label. The company gave no reason for the resignation and says it hasn't formally engaged with any CEO candidates yet. NVIDIA reports its Q3 results on November 17, its first since the change at the top.

But to each their own values... or lack thereof.
The thing that often stands out to me isn't who supports him or indeed Nv, It's how much some people seem to need everyone else to dislike them as much as they do.
I haven't signed the petition, but I do find the discourse around Jensen Huang to be psychologically fascinating - more so than the scandal itself.
So to all those who are in support of this clueless notion;
Jensen Huang is gone! He can not and will not return to Nvidia. This is FACT! No petition or anything else will bring him back. Full stop. STHU about it!
The idea he alone is the one who made this AI mess is idiotic. Microsoft, alphabet and Meta and amazon have trillions in the build out those even have their own chips.
Big money is involved and those bastards started getting cold feet a couple of months ago.
I certain Jensen has skeletons in his closet, but painting him as the one responsible is dumb is nothing more than bastards needing a sacrifice
