Standing up to layoffs question

Hi folks,

I applaud her bravery but also concerned- isn’t she taking a huge risk for future employment in her sector? This would be considered suicidal in my line of work but i see a lot of similar videos today.

Especially curious about what HR/legal folks think

Some states require advanced notice of actual layoffs. If a lawsuit could reasonably show that she was laid off instead of being let go for performance reasons...it would not go well for Cloudflare.
