Part of a CAs job is to manage public opinion because their job is to maintain trust in the CA system. If they cannot instill trust then they should not be a CA.

Is it? I'll admit I have no knowledge of the charter of a modern CA.

I read the entire thread too and "I'm disappointed" that you portrayed (in the root of this comment) and unfair picture of "being harassed by a mob" while then retreating to "I don't know how this works".

It's basically a series of vague appeals to emotion.

> It really feels like a perversely inappropriate forum for discussing a complicated issue like that.

and

> Rachel was a victim of a sloppy but effective smear campaign.

The facts are neatly summarized in the thread as to why the CA was yanked. It's dispassionate (Except the MS flame) and to the point.

Your defense is almost as poor as the slight accusation of the researcher as misogynistic.
