I admire the author's willingness to see possibilities for positive change here, including through restorative justice. It is especially admirable in the context of the fundamental violations and loss of trust that such harassment and assault continues to impose on so many women in their professional careers. I can also completely understand different reactions to this, including a deep sense of anger and betrayal.

We must all do better, and continuously seek to do so.

In the short term, there is clearly value to outing commonly-known 'secrets' such as this one, in this and many other industries.

I too admire it. Denouncing someone hopefully willing to change to start that conversation is a good idea.

More importantly, it is necessary. Going on a creep witchhunt has too many risks of blowbacks.
