Meta Platforms Inc. sued one of its former vice presidents for what it called a “stunning” betrayal in his defection to a “stealth” AI cloud computing startup.
Dipinder Singh Khurana, also known as T.S. Khurana, had worked at Meta for 12 years and rose to a senior position at the company as VP of infrastructure, but violated his contract as he was preparing to leave by taking a “trove of proprietary, highly sensitive, confidential, and non-public documents about Meta’s business and employees,” according to the complaint filed Feb. 29 in California state court in Contra Costa County, and which has not been previously reported.
