Is it note worthy that people who will not have issues are getting even more?

I would say no?

There should be some cynical response to that.

"Oh you loose your business? I just got 1k extra to my FB salary"

I'm not even sure why FB would not try to do something for the society directly with it's money instead of giving it to there well paid employees.

FB is donating to WHO, is creating a fund to help small businesses, partnered with CNN to spread awareness and keep people safe, and the Chan-Zuckerberg foundation has been helping test people across the Bay Area.

Can they not help their employees too? I'm a FB employee and while I'm not in need, not everyone is a developer. Life is expensive here in the bay. I think some people need to chill.

I don't mind it but I do sympathize with people who might see this as an inappropriate news.
