Ridiculous, Canada. The "Language Police" literally exist.

Except the verdict was not guilty, thankfully.

He was jailed, forbidden from using the internet, subjected to a multi-year legal nightmare, left with a six-figure legal fee, and made a target of aggression for rabid feminists worldwide.

He lost his job, was banned from using PC and internet during the trial, etc..

It shouldn't have even gone this far.

No more ridiculous than Ellen Pao's allegations of sexual harrassment.

[kelukelugames]

Ellen Pao never claimed sexual harassment. She claimed workplace discrimination because of her gender. Being discriminated against after breaking off an affair is common. Think of how much most people like their exs. However, according to my lawyer friend, Pao had zero chance of legal victory.
