When people or companies have done something stupid I feel like step one is to privately contact the CEO and person who made the mistake and ask them to fix it.
People who know no better might be making foolish but non malicious mistakes in their career. At least it’s worth giving a chance for the boss/person who made the mistake to clean it up.
Get an unsatisfactory response? Sure, do a public name and shame to the internet.
The issue with the name and shame is that a foolish mistake can lead to sackings and lives changes. I’d be cautious about doing it without playing out other angles to determine level of maliciousness and willingness to fix it.
I do understand the shock anger and indignity of having your voice stolen, and I have no idea what steps Jeff took to quietly get it fixed in private. Even so, people make foolish mistakes, be cautious about summoning the internet mob.
