This is not just a case of a few bad actors. This is not something that is fixable with a pledge or a new policy. This is a culture that has been allowed to fester and to rot by enablers who refused to intervene when they witnessed inexcusable behavior or went to great lengths to avoid seeing it.* Wow! Accurate and direct. This is the kind of example and leadership we need in tech. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Appears in - [WT9: Weekly Thing for July 8, 2017](https://weekly.thingelstad.com/archive/9/), Links 📌 ## Saved the same week - [Little Snitch 4](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/489a355dc918/) (obdev.at, July 5, 2017) - [Facebook can track your browsing even after you've logged out, judge says | Technology | The Guardian](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/f12ac442eb31/) (theguardian.com, July 5, 2017) - [Facebook, for the first time, acknowledges election manipulation - CBS News](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/1167c708c5cd/) (cbsnews.com, July 5, 2017) - [Exclusive: Dave McClure resigns as general partner of 500 Startups funds - Axios](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/d8d831440df4/) (axios.com, July 5, 2017) - [Gorodki: Ancient Russian game enjoys renaissance | Russia Beyond The Headlines](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/76123729022f/) (rbth.com, July 5, 2017) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.kaporcenter.org/press-coverage-posts/statement-by-freada-kapor-klein-and-mitch-kapor-on-the-resignation-of-dave-mcclure/
