All of these tweets I see from her account from the last ~45 minutes or so don't help her case at all.

Taking these types of things public especially before any formal investigation occurs (which kicked off this whole scenario) usually does more harm than good.



Did you not read the article? They claim to have finished a formal, third party lead, investigation.


I did and understand everything that is going on, but reading her Twitter feed the last hour shitting on everyone and everything at Github (since they didn't find any criminal wrongdoing) doesn't make you look good or more believable, it actually does the opposite.


Yep, we should all just shut the fuck up if we feel we're wronged.


Yes. A lawyer would advise that yes, please do not say anything until we get to court.


100% correct. If you are serious, you don't use Twitter or social media to advocate your case.


There are good and bad ways to respond to the results of an investigation. I would argue that her response falls under the latter. She's doing herself a disservice by posting stuff like this.
