Brittney Griner was recently released after months of continuous effort and negotiation by the U.S. government. However, not many are happy with some of the outcomes of the prisoner swap deal. Many have slammed the decision to release a dangerous arms dealer like Viktor Bout. Also, many are unhappy about not freeing former Marine Paul Whelan who has been detained in Russia since December 2018. Some have accused President Joe Biden’s administration of bringing back Griner first as a political move to garner votes. This has brought out a strong response from tech CEO Christopher Bouzy who is a huge supporter of Meghan Markle.
Bouzy is the CEO of tech firm BOT Sentinel which tackles misinformation and online harassment. He recently slammed Twitter and trolls for the hate comments on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
