Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns amid infidelity and spy concerns

Jensen Huang has resigned as CEO of Nvidia following reports of infidelity and a potential foreign intelligence operation. Despite co-founding the company and being its largest individual shareholder with approximately 3.58% of shares, Huang lacked the super-voting power to protect his position due to Nvidia's one-share-one-vote structure. This contrasts with founders like Mark Zuckerberg at Meta, who maintain significant control through dual-class share systems, allowing them to effectively elect their boards and dictate company decisions.
