Adria Richards doesn't care about collateral damage in the war on Dongles. Who cares if several uninvolved people get fingered?

While I sympathize with their situation, I wouldn't call those guys "heroes".

Well for sure there are 3 people prominent and she accuses only two which means she's even by her own twisted logic falsely accusing one guy and subjecting him to public humiliation.

That is sexual harassment and so is what PyCon did.

Source?

Fingering? Is this a sick joke? WHO IS YOUR EMPLOYER?!

I hate to have to be the guy, but this is the obligitory "I missed this story, and don't understand the concept, please link or explain it to me" post. I've read the comments and have the gist of it, that a joke was made and overheard and such, but does anyone have some info on it? Many thanks :)

She, like the rest of her brood, is showing her true colors.

(Oh crap, because she's a WOC, I suppose that makes my comment racist, right?!)

Is that person Adria Richards?

Is that person a woman?

If the answer to both of those is no (especially the first) she doesn't give a fuck.

I've said this before, but isn't it the guy's employer's fault for bending like a noodle and firing the guy? the employer could have seen it for the trivial matter it was and done something far less severe. People can twitter whatever they want (to a point), it's the reactions that really matter

2013-03-26T19:32:59+00:00

PLEASE don't miss the point here.

The point is, even if there were a person behind her doing something disgusting, she has NO RIGHT to show a photo which features several people who had NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

She's dragging INNOCENT PEOPLE through the mud, even if you think her complaint was valid.

Is there any proof that the guy circled in that picture is actually the Mr. Hank from that forum discussion? I find it odd that somebody completely unrelated to the two men obviously center in the photo would be fired, just for sitting near them.

Cthulusbaby · 2013-03-27T07:26:48+00:00

Good point, it's not like she made any indication as to which 2 guys she was talking about. I can see the faces of 7 guys in the photo.

2013-03-26T19:09:49+00:00

Of course she doesn't care. She's a self entitled feminist bitch.

20rakah · 2013-03-26T19:59:52+00:00

If the guy is truly uninvolved then maybe he should be be suing for wrongful dismissal.

Nightfalls · 2013-03-26T16:59:12+00:00

I have been asuming it was the guy smirking at the camera. He has this look of, 'Oh hell yeah. She is taking a picture of me on the sly. I am hot tonight.
Honey, I got a dongle for you. And not one of those new fab USB blue tooth things either.
I got a big old serial port dongle baby. They don't make dongles like mine anymore. I mean baby, I go full-duplex.'.

Yeah, he got lucky all right.
