But it is her problem. Didn't you read the blog post? The fact that they want to talk to her and she doesn't know why is a source of considerable anxiety for her and is interfering with work.
- zyxley 11y agoThe situation caused her anxiety, yes, but resolving it was still on the onus of the FBI, by way of talking to her lawyer.
- eridius 11y agoThe FBI only has to do that if they really care about resolving it. If the FBI doesn't care too much about resolving it (and obviously they don't care enough to actually talk to her lawyer about it), then it'll just stay unresolved and continue to cause anxiety to the woman involved.
- zyxley 11y agoYes, and? Her best course of action was, at that point, still "let the lawyer handle it".
- eridius 11y agoAnd now we're back where we started, where I point out that the FBI is refusing to tell the lawyer what's going on. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11632021 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11632021
- zyxley 11y agoAnd again... that's their problem, not hers. Her only reasonably prudent action at that point was to do nothing. Talking to the FBI directly instead of letting her lawyer handle it could have just made things worse. If the FBI actually wanted anything to get done instead of just harassing her, they should have talked to her lawyer.
