I will keep it plain and simple, there had been a massive earthquake (7.0 in magnitude) recently in Aegean Sea and resulted with buildings collapsed in Izmir, a densely populated city in Turkey. Some innocent lives are lost and somehow a sick fuck named Maxime Rastello (https://www.linkedin.com/in/maximerastello/) an Microsoft MVP decided to make a shout-out with cheer for the death of people whom even includes children and elder because of their nationality. While this guy is in Geneva, I am almost sure such people has enough power to ensure other engineers do not advance in their career because racism. We have ethics line in Amazon but cannot something similar on the Microsoft side. I'd like to report this fuckery directly and ensure it's been heard on the Microsoft's HR's side. Not only on Twitter mentions. Do you have such e-mail addresses in Microsoft? If so, could you be so polite to share it? #Microsoft #tech EDIT: Found the address of business conduct since he's not a direct employee (apparently) https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/compliance/sbc/reportaconcern But still will keep this page for the sake of having record on bigotry. EDIT 2: Scott Hanselmann: “The person to whom these comments were attributed is not, and never has been a Microsoft employee. As a result of a clear breach of conduct his status as a Microsoft MVP has been rescinded.” – A Microsoft spokesperson @Sword_Group: “The employee in question therefore has been dismissed on grounds of gross misconduct with immediate effect.“ @Sword_Group reaffirms its commitment to equality, decency and respect at all times.
This is crazy! How does one be such a monster and sociopath and get to such levels in career.
Apparently he's not working directly at Microsoft from what I see on his LinkedIn profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/maximerastello/ But he's an MVP and most likely working close with Microsoft. Since he pulls all his data on private to avoid consequences; I'm putting the SS of his profile.
i cant even see his profile.. did he disable this?
He hid his account but Google Cache came to help.
Keep pressing and report to proper channels. Fuc* bigots. They deserve the worst.
Is he saying the bc he’s French and he doesn’t like the recent terrorist acts that have happened there?
Maybe... Some are just grown up as bigots
You can report it via CELA for this misconduct
Start a group chat and add all folks from blind who share your viewpoint. I am one of them Add more people and let's each one of us properly complain about the misconduct
MVPs are not employees. All they can do is strip her of her title
It happened as of today.
Wait Microsoft MVPs get paid? i thought they were just a bunch of bloggers who got a boy scout badge to make them feel better
Regardless, he uses Microsoft’s name and diversity while he wasn’t able to tolerate himself.
What is unethical here? It seems he was going after the political regime and not poor people from the earthquake. What would be your reason to fire him? Because of publishing sensitive content? We need freedom of speech now more than ever.
You get back-ism and having a joy to shout it out is the unethical part. How can he be after political while no-one from politics got affected direct or indirect? People whom lost their life didn’t do anything to him directly or indirectly. They were random people. Imagine as someone making a fun of death of your loved ones for the sake of going after the politician in your country. I guess it’d make more sense like that. We definetly need to have freedom of speech yet, incitement to hatred or discrimination is not freedom of speech and it’s also against the law of the country he resides in.
But what exactly is here hatred or discrimination? You are assuming something that's not told at all. He said himself that his message was intended to the government, not the people.

Asians - what are your thoughts on asian female white male ?
I am quite sure there is. Report this MF and make some noise about it. If he was at G he would have been fired right away
I just couldn't locate it yet but will make sure to notify Microsoft about it. Also, there's an ongoing rage for tagging Microsoft and Satya of course. Yet, I doubt if it'll be reaching somewhere since he decided to "hide" his tweets. Therefore, want to make sure Microsoft to be aware of their partners/employees.
We have an internal website to report misconducts. MVPs are not employees though. I think they are like "influencers". But there should be a way to report.
