> anyone receiving threats online should report it to law enforcement The fact that you suggest this is proof that you've never had to do so. This is literally part of what I do fo…

I've consulted a lawyer. You are incorrect.

If you aren't a part of FreeBSD core or the FreeBSD Foundation, then you don't know much about what's been happening at all. They haven't released any information about this public…

> the lack of sources provided Sources are: emails between myself, core, and the FreeBSD Foundation. I'm not providing those. A phone call with the FreeBSD Foundation, which I did …

Or people can have a reasonable conversation about harassment and shady legal maneuvers by open source projects. Even if you're not concerned with harassment as a subject, seeing a…

If outside trolls appeared, I'd blame the trolls, not HN. It's fairly easy to see what accounts are new. There have been controversial posts of mine on HN before where new accounts…

I saw. But it didn't make this comment necessarily invalid. If there's a policy against putting an HN post on social media when said post involves the person publicizing it, I'm no…

A lot of my followers are in the tech community and part of HN. My apologies, and if people find it to be a problem, I'll gladly delete the tweet. I think it's interesting watching…

Citation needed. I've never talked to him (or, for that matter, the person that said they know all the parties involved).

Good luck with that. You harassed other women off the internet, but I'm made of stronger stuff, and I'm not going anywhere. I'll continue to protect people from abusers like you by…

Unless you're part of FreeBSD core or the FreeBSD Foundation, I don't have to air anything. Dude chose to make things public, and the mob descended, so I responded & that's where w…

someone's mad they are on the blocklist. ^.^

It means that GW is a white male gamer (this is not supposition, hi GW!) that disagreed with Pao's discrimination lawsuit.

> This is like dream come true for voat dot co. A dream they weren't prepared for. The site has been in failboat mode all day. Should have designed to scale for all of those users …

That's a request that was made recently to OAPI. Um. We might be working on that.

Internet hate can often turn into real life hate. Witness: SWATing, emails to employers, ordering pizzas as a "joke". Not to mention, the number of death threats and threats of sex…

I keep hearing this from that group. GamerGate seems to think that they are the majority of users on any given site. They're convinced that Twitter is going to fail if they leave. …

Just because the volume of hate has been turned up to 11 does not in any way mean that the majority of Reddit users feel this way, and this is something that many people seem to be…

So do a search on reddit, look to see how much Pao-hate remains that is weeks/months old. It's pretty obvious that this was some BS rumor cooked up by conspiracy theorists.

I can confirm that most indications we've been able to gather point at SWAT threats coming in over Skype and google voice. Location is harder to pinpoint. Many do appear to come fr…

GamerGate is not interesting beyond the fact that it's made abuse a topic of conversation, and that the rate of engagement is high enough to provide a steady stream of abuse for an…

Indeed. I would think a hastily coded perl script written in a fog of tequila being so effective is a pretty good vote in my favor. I mean, imagine what I can do with gin.

>I know enough women who are not subject to such abuse to know that it is a tiny minority that is. Are these women really not subject to abuse? Is it possible that they just haven'…

>Great start. Yeah, I edited. I'm exhausted and probably shouldn't be overly insulting when I don't even know you. You're kind of just another person piling onto a tired point, tho…

I am really so very tired of seeing people say this. I'm going to explain this once, and I'm only doing this here because despite my reservations over the community, I know that HN…
