>As a method of justice it has more in common with a lynch mob than a court of law

You mean like when someone gets personally offended by a comment and instead of resolving it one-on-one turns to her Twitter account to shame and blame the "violators"?

Yeah. Except the person who instigated this set up the lynching in her capacity as a professional, i.e. on her "evangelist" twitter account. The kids DDOSing aren't representing companies or doing business



Agreed, as an evangelist her twitter account represent Sendgrid, as such Sendgrid approve of this message which is baffling to me.

I'm really sad these guys lost their jobs because of these remarks, I don't think the way she handled that is the way we need to move forward.
