Just read it again, and have to ask: what was the impact of those actions on the community? It obviously had an impact on the targeted woman, but the community? Did anybody really think "gee she looks ugly in those pictures, I guess she sucks as a person" or anything like that?


Maybe female devs saw it, and decided they didn't want to be the target of that behaviour, and decided not to contribute to tech conferences?
