A US tech company says its chief executive has quit after he was apparently caught on a big screen at a Coldplay concert embracing a female co-worker, in a clip that went viral.

The clip showed a man and a woman hugging on a jumbo screen at the arena in Foxborough, Massachusetts, before they abruptly ducked and hid from the camera.

The pair were identified in US media as Mr Byron, a married chief executive of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the firm’s chief people officer.

    Maybe because of the power imbalance? Wasn’t he her superior?

    I don’t see that being pertinent here. You think she was pressured into sleeping with her boss? I’d take that bet.

    What strange world do you live in? Usually women are treated much worse after such incidents.

    LOL, no, they’re not. You’re the one in a strange world, apparently.

    And in such case, why is HIS marriage her responsibility?

    Oh, I see. You don’t think the unattached person in an affair has any responsibility for wrecking a home, even though they know they’re doing it. What a strange sense of morality you have.

    I think you just like letting women off the hook because you’re sexist.
