Trump pardons Ex-Waymo and Uber engineer Anthony Levandowski – Update

UPDATE, 21 January 2021: Anthony Levandowski was issued an 11th-hour pardon overnight by former-US president Donald Trump. The ex-Google and Uber engineer – sentenced to 18 month prison in 2020 after he pleaded guilty to stealing company secrets relating to autonomous vehicle development – was yet to spend his first night behind bars due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. With his criminal conviction expunged, he is no longer subject to imprisonment (or any other legal repercussions).
