<div dir="ltr"><div>Ada has been a pretty toxic member of the infosec community. Their stupid harassment cards at defcon were annoying, but the violet blue incident is but one of several incidents of manufacturing drama for PR. that sort of behavior is unacceptable in our community. And as you said... ada is a small org. 2 people. so i don't see the culture of ada ever changing. I'd rather people invested in the gnome outreach program for women.<br><br><a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen">https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen</a><br><br></div>-matt<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Sep 23, 2014 at 3:46 PM, Al Billings <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:albill@openbuddha.com" target="_blank">albill@openbuddha.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Yes, the real problem that people care about is that Valerie hates Violet Blue and it isn’t that Valerie, using her role in AI, got a sex-positive talk by a woman cancelled at a conference because she didn’t like it. Since she still runs AI and clearly nothing has changed, I’m not sure why you’re surprised that people have a negative reaction.<span class=""><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Sep 23, 2014, at 12:44 PM, Liz Henry <<a href="mailto:lizhenry@gmail.com" target="_blank">lizhenry@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;float:none;display:inline!important">Ada Initiative: A small non profit run by two people who once pissed off Violet Blue.<span> </span></span></div></blockquote></div><br></div></span></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
