    While I ain’t gonna excuse some shiti company atro turf, why is this being “litigated” on the web?

    Criminal misconduct should be handled by the police.

    If misconduct that us not criminal gets handled by civil court.

    What outcome is the victim looking for here?

      Madison, the victim, told her story online and was met with the vitriolic, violent hatred you’d expect from a woman pointing out the misogyny of the internet’s favorite tech boy. She shared her story mostly to warn other women what to expect from working there as well as a step in her own healing process.

      She never wanted to sue them since they are much wealthier than her and she kind of just wanted to move past that part of her life. Linus Media Group isn’t going to sue her for defamation because even if they can win, as they claim (which I personally have my own doubts, but I’m an outside observer with no legal education), it’s still a very bad look.

      Since no parties are bringing litigation to a court, the litigation happens in the court of public opinion.

        Yeah, I’m just gonna go ahead and say you can’t see past your own biases on this one.

        She said, he said…

        Also, I don’t doubt they prolly dunked on her at the office tbh. Anyone who worked a job knows that office is subject to jail house rules and everything it entails.
