I deleted most posts from yesterday. I got some DMs overnight that folks are harassing people from my replies (via DMs).

I'm so sorry.

@vkc I'm really disappointed in this. I understand that you want to protect yourself and your followers, and I absolutely respect that.

This is an important conversation for the Fediverse to have, though. I'd like to see if we can figure it out at the protocol and technology level. We don't have to have the conversation in your comments, though.

EDIT: updated to make it clearer that Veronica is right to take care of herself and others.

@evan @vkc i'm worried we'll always be in an arms race with people who have an ideological rationale to harass women who speak out against being harassed
@ada @vkc hopefully not always.
