Will any Fortune 100 CEO be photographed wearing a hoodie in their official breach-statement video in 2026?

About

A hoodie has become shorthand for "we are humble engineers, please don't sue us". Does the trope show up in 2026? Resolves YES if a Fortune 100 (current Fortune list) CEO appears in a self-recorded or company-produced video addressing a breach disclosed in 2026, while wearing what a reasonable observer would call a hoodie.

Resolution criteria

Video must be on the company's official channels (YouTube, X, LinkedIn, press release page) or a major news outlet sourcing it from the company, posted in 2026, in response to a disclosed security incident.

Source

Company press rooms, official YouTube/LinkedIn channels, Reuters / AP / Bloomberg breach coverage.

Ambiguity

AMBIGUOUS if the garment is a half-zip / fleece / pullover that observers reasonably dispute.
