whoa, I& #39;ve healed enough that I momentarily blanked on my rapist& #39;s name.
It& #39;s Richard DeVaul ( @rdevaul). After resigning from Google & deleting his Twitter after that story, he& #39;s back on tech twitter, and is the CTO of a company called Prometheus Fuels, according to his LinkedIn https://twitter.com/kateconger/status/1309573093912788993">https://twitter.com/kateconge...

Two years later, there& #39;s been no accountability. He& #39;s CTO of a Y Combinator backed startup, after having sexually assaulted me (and many others), & having sexually harassed @starsandrobots.
@daiwaka and @ktbenner& #39;s reporting has been met by a shrug by the "innovation ecosystem"

They& #39;re perfectly fine to hire a serial rapist and sexual harasser, who has literally had articles about his bad conduct printed in the NYT on page A1. Because their mission is about "innovation" and "solving climate change".
Some of y& #39;all who follow me, follow him.

Have y& #39;all considered that maybe instead of hiring a disgraced person who has driven countless women and non-binary people out of tech, you maybe just HIRE WOMEN AND NON-BINARY PEOPLE to leadership positions in the first place?
That& #39;s where real innovation comes from.

Don& #39;t celebrate "geniuses" who sexually assault others. https://twitter.com/lizthegrey/status/1055503918862602240">https://twitter.com/lizthegre...
Star and I are only two of his victims. His other victims are unwilling to come forward, because they are not out about being sex-positive, or don& #39;t want to be victim-blamed/have their lives dragged through the mud. https://medium.com/s/story/google-employees-our-executives-engaged-in-abuse-dont-let-kink-and-polyamory-be-their-scapegoats-9099d473e80e">https://medium.com/s/story/g...
seriously, all he had to do was delete his accounts and disappear off the grid for a year doing random consulting, y& #39;all forgot, and he got promptly snapped up and hired back into the tech/startup ecosystem? fuck that shit, I& #39;m going to keep reminding people of who and what he is
He& #39;s been doing this for 20+ years, and warnings circulated about him in whisper networks for that long.
No matter how much he swears up and down that he& #39;s changed, or that they& #39;re "just rumors", he will make your organization a poisonous place to work. https://twitter.com/kerobinso_sf/status/1309665806075092992">https://twitter.com/kerobinso...
