I'll preface this with, I don't know who this guy is and this is the first time I heard anything about this, I am unfamiliar with the allegations. I am just absolutely shocked by this >I don’t have employees, I don’t cut checks for investment. None of the women who came forward were ever in a position where I could make or break their careers. Sexual Harassment requires that I have such power. JFC, does anyone actual…
> Every act of infidelity, every time I have watched an adult video online, How watching porn equates to cheat on your wife? Very weird moral compass.
He's a man down right now and probably very emotional. Just a guess, but should have listened to his lawyer. Also, U.S seem to have strange views on what is sexual assault. I don't know who is quilt or who is lying, but reading some of them are things I would avoid women over the ocean all together.
Are you getting it confused with sexual harassment? which we are also talking about in this thread.

So, in other words, you have zero source for policies known to work and there is no list you can point me to for known solutions. Thank you.
“In other words” No, just what I said, although clearly it fell short of what you’d like to hear.

I think that goes way beyond casual "flirting" in most people's book. Obviously people differ, signals get misread, and tolerances vary. I'm aware of one "code of conduct violation" report based on a Tshirt that made me roll my eyes--as well as the eyes of quite a few women I know. But that doesn't seem like a particular edge case as reported.
Touching someone's leg is considered flirting, is it not? Honestly, I did not mean to mis-characterize it.

No. I would not have said so Clearly it varies based on how well you know and your relationship with a person. But randomly in a semi-professional context?
I feel like there's something I'm missing because, as recounted, his actions had such a strong and lasting impact to Greer.
Maybe this Scoble dude is just a nuclear style creep and just having to sit next to him is torturous. But that seems highly unlikely. I've never met the guy! I don't recall ever hearing him speak or watching a video of him even. So...
If I'm understanding the story, 4 people at a hotel bar drinking, one touching someone's leg. And what that led to, or possibly even caused -- I think it's fair to describe it as incredibly damaging? Obviously we want to avoid people being hurt like that. So, we construct social mores and civil law to try to prevent it from happening, and punish a small subset of offenders very harshly.
I'm a little stunned by all of it.

You don't need to tell anyone.
Yes, and then if you ever try to use those recordings it gets even creepier.

From "Elements of Libel and Slander"[1] > First, the plaintiff must prove that the defendant made a false and defamatory statement concerning the plaintiff. How do you prove that you didn't sexually assault someone 5 years ago? Gee, a recording of all of your interactions would come in handy here.

Well, you could always ask Woody Allen. https://kristof.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/02/01/an-open-letter-...
