Damn, Gizmodo.

marco:

Did you really need to publicly shame the poor guy with his full name and photo?

Don’t you think he feels bad enough already?

Did that really add anything to the story?

You just took a dark time in this man’s life — caused only by his negligence, not malice — and made it much worse. For what reason? Did you make anyone’s lives better by having done that?

The tone in the tabloid post about the letter they bullied out of Apple makes me want to kick Brian Lam’s nuts in.  Where’s the ‘1 million users to boycott Gawker Media’ group?  I’d join.
