Kathy Sierra and Scoble; Fueling Fire.
March 27th, 2007
As many of you may, or may not know, Kathy Sierra has been threatened to a point which could scare anyone. I don’t think there is room for this type of stuff anywhere. It’s sick that anyone would do this.
But the steps Kathy and Robert Scoble are taking now may just fuel the fire, and make these types of threats more common in the future. You see, Kathy posted a long entry on her blog about the threats and how she is scared to leave the house and Scoble is taking the week off from blogging “in support of Kathy”.
Now this almost amounts to giving into demands of terrorists, you simply embolden them and their agenda. Now these anonymous people who posted these threats are now going to be embolden by the power you just gave them. I can hear it now, them saying “we made the blogosphere go down on its knees for a week”.
My advice is to ignore it for the most part, and if it gets to a point to where it actually scares you, then call the police. Don’t stop doing what yo do though.
