Does anyone remember the ApacheCon Noirin Shirley / Florian Leibert scandal from a few years back, where she wrote a blog post accusing him of sexual assault at a conference party?
So would SendGrid FIRE Shirley for resorting to "publicly shaming" him in a blog post, if she had a public role in the company? Would her blog post be in violation of PyCon conference policy?
To be 100% clear, I'm not suggesting the dongle joke rises to the level of sexual assault. But the general policy against "public shaming" that's being put in place here for PyCon, and as a fireable offense at companies like SendGrid, doesn't stop at dick jokes.
What do you think, could this prohibition against "public shaming" have a chilling effect on victims' right to speak out?
