Yeah, this sounds about right. We're discussing it a lot internally and it doesn't look like much will happen. They are working to discredit the register, saying it is inaccurate. Although they won't explain what exactly is inaccurate about it. Jamie even commented on here that they aren't being honest even about why she was fired (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22231548).

At this point the legitimacy of my account has even been called into question internally. It certainly seems like they are interested in discrediting everyone they possibly can. We wouldn't want anyone to actually be moved to action or anything.

I am the one who questioned the account, so I think I can comment on the matter. Specifically I said the following in Slack (in reply to some discussion about the things going on on Hacker News):

    > The "culture of fear" thing was something mentioned a few months back on
    > HN as well, though it remains to be seen if the account in question is

I'm not sure how you can interpret that as "they are interested in discrediting everyone they possibly can". In fact, I think it's disrespectful to throw somebody who simply questioned an account's legitimacy on the same pile as those who "are interested in discrediting everyone they possibly can".

That's fair. You definitely are NOT part of the problem at all and I should have been more clear and separated the two frustrations. I apologize for letting my emotions mislead and lumping you in as part of the problem.
