"Most of the outlets are having a hard time wrapping their heads around
how this could go on so long within arenas whose missions are to fight
against injustice and power imbalances, and to champion whistleblowers.
One might think these organizations were hypocrites, or worse. Some of
the articles lean toward framing hacking and tech, our communities,
businesses, and conferences, as places where sexual abuse and harassment
is rampant and abusers are institutionally protected.

*To understand why they’re not entirely wrong, *why this was allowed to
continue for so long, and how we make sure this ends here, we need to
examine some difficult things."
