Our sympathies goes out to Kathy Sierra of Creating Passionate Users after this incident. Whatever totally lame excuses ‘Joey‘ and other involved may come up with we all need to take this as a ‘memento’ for opposing the sick and unrestrained behavior that sometimes appears on the web (among other places). Hope that we can help put an end to people without decency harassing and threatening others whatever the disagreement. It’s too easy to come up with theories on gender-specific psycho-pathology as the driver of such incidents, as the ‘profile’ unfortunately goes beyond sociopath, sexually deprived men. We’re looking forward to see Kathy return to her job teaching the world high class tech design. And we’re hoping for collective means and technologies to prevent too much of this in the future.
