I probably should stand corrected because pycon did not remove the offenders from the conference [1] but settled it between all parties involved.
That actually makes maters worse tbh because if Adria hadn't posted their image on twitter for her 9000+ followers to see, it would have remained an issue settled between pycon, adria and these guys. Now the case is closed for Adria and pycon while the guys are far worse off with one of them being fired. Not good!

- scotty79 14y agoI don't think the thing is done for Adria. By the fact that this thing was blown out of proportion by Playhaven she had accidentally got painted a troll target on her back that draws attention even from half baked misogynist trolls. I think that in a month the guy that got fired will be better off than any other party involved. For one he might be employed by a company that won't shed him off like a hot potato whenever spotlight will shine in their direction.
