I disagree about the adequacy of the analogy. The more apt analogy would be if I know he is susceptible to upper body takedowns. Sendgrid didn't do their homework and decided to treat a technical problem like a PR problem.
We are talking about email services not rocket science. Nor is it the case that an vindictive ex-employee took advantage of some inside knowledge to take their servers down(which would still be negligence on my book). They have been shown to be unable to deal with the basic hazards of hosting and email service. Plus instead of trying to learn and solve the real issue (hey we all have much room for growth) they decided to defuse the situation with PR.
tl;dr
Besides, unlike some lame-ass startup with an executive team that's clearly never solved hard problems, I've actually run e-mail before.[0]
I mean seriously, do you want the executive team that fires someone because they can't handle a bit of adversity then claims victimhood?[1]
