I think this is textbook irony. Good decision by SendGrid, IMO. I'm sure it was driven by the ton of negative feedback they got yesterday. They probably didn't want any part of it, and Adria overstepped her bounds. She claimed in a bunch of her tweets that SendGrid supported her, when there was nothing from SendGrid's side to indicate that.

That may have had a bit to do with it as well.

I'm sure the support lines at sendgrid were an absolute clusterfuck today.

My worry , at this point, is the legal fallout of the whole situation. Lawyers could make what is already an absolute mess into something even worse.
