I think the issue here is more her posting the picture and identifying the people, no? I had a strong urge to tweet "There's a guy with a Jagermeister hat and Green Day shirt reading a Berenstain Bears book in the doctor's waiting room" a couple months ago, and as funny as it was, I wouldn't have posted a stranger's picture.
I think it's fine to vent on Twitter about the things going on around you, the medium is suited to that. It's easy to use it as your own personal live log. But it's not necessary and I think a privacy violation to post random pictures of people.
Perhaps she just takes a lot of pictures and was in super tweeting mode, like tweeting every meal and had a lapse of judgement? Didn't look at her other tweets. But that is the issue, that of the picture, correct? At first I didn't realize there was a link to a photo anyway and didn't know what the big deal is. Not sure what kind of employer would fire someone over a photo of someone claiming that they said something (privately) as well.
It's sad because it makes it harder for women who have more serious concerns to be taken seriously, and to let those women also have reactions and express their discomfort, in a way that doesn't include publically shaming all those involved for more minor incidents like this.
