Report: Google paid Android creator Andy Rubin a ton of cash following sexual misconduct allegations

Andy Rubin, the creator of Android, is a very wealthy man. 

According to a blockbuster report from the New York Times, that's thanks in no small part to a $90 million payment from Google as company executives ushered him out the door while simultaneously sweeping credible sexual misconduct allegations under the rug. 

The story details a string of alleged misconduct by Rubin, noting multiple affairs with Google employees and one claim of "coerced" oral sex from an Android employee in 2013. The Times notes that the company investigated, and found the claim to be credible.
