I have no problem with this person who probably had legitimate issues with Google but "You are not worth having any conversations about this, since you are not someone whose humanity (let alone expertise recognised by journalists, governments, scientists, civic organisations such as the electronic frontiers foundation etc) is acknowledged or valued in this company" is a pretty clear and cut accusation of bigotry to me.

How exactly would you fail to acknowledge somebody's humanity thanks to "naivete"? I'm making the presumably safe assumption that she is not a sentient piece of lint.
