Gordon has now officially flipped his lid. This is of course because someone has revealed his True Name:

RE: A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO THE UD MANAGEMENT TEAM ON YOUR UNCIVIL BEHAVIOUR

You know or should know that I have repeatedly asked that my personal name not be used in this blog or other contexts; as this tends to trigger spam waves at my mailbox.

That is a simple, easily met request; one that requires no great effort. One that many other commenters here at UD easily comply with.

We now know as well that with ever more personal info online, providing personal information online is an invitation to identity theft and all the harm that flows from that.

Since you know or should know this — it is fairly obvious that your handle is not your real name (not many Jemimas around these days); there is no excuse for your uncivil behaviour. Behaviour that shows plainly the sort of ruthless amoral factionalism that Plato warned of as a direct result of the rise of evolutionary materialism among the avant garde of a culture, 2,350 years ago.

Moreover, we are not in a neutral situation.

You know, or should know that design theory advocates are often subjected to workplace harassment or worse, so “outing” tactics such as you have indulged above through disrespectfully using my personal name, can do real harm, and exerts a chilling effect.

Thankfully, I am beyond the reach of the NCSE and similar thought police. But the tactic could easily hurt others, so I have to take it seriously when it is exerted against me.

You have plainly allowed obvious rage and hostility to lead you into utterly inexcusable behaviour. Yesterday’s childish insults were not enough to satisfy your anger, so today you have resorted to outing tactics.

For shame!

I trust you will understand the consequences of such behaviour.

Good day, madam
