To be fair, there's a big gap between saying how you could spend a million dollars and spending a million dollars.
But if someone who worked for me started talking about exacting revenge on enemies -- in a public forum or not -- I would definitely have a problem with that.
- nailer 12y agoI get the feeling that there's a side that Buzzfeed and Pando aren't mentioning. The executive mentioned 'they'd be justified' in digging up dirt on Sarah Lacy. I wonder on what basis that one would justify that - the article mentions Lacy's criticism for a dumb ad campaign in France, but that doesn't seem like something that would provoke a response saying 'we'd be justified on digging up dirt about you'. Does anyone know if Sarah Lacy has dug up dirt on Uber staff and their families?
- eli 12y agoThat is extremely speculative. I know you're just asking questions, but let's give her the benefit of the doubt. Most people don't do things like that and it's not nice to imply otherwise absent any evidence.
- nailer 12y agoIt's speculative, but not extremely so. Most people don't randomly suggest they'd be justified going after other people's families after simple criticism, so let's give everyone the benefit of the doubt. EDIT: according to other posters, who read the website in question, Sarah Lacy regularly reports on people's personal lives. Which sounds like exactly what the under person was talking about doing back.

- eli 12y agoWhat specifically did she do that would justify investigating her family?
