Just like many people predicted in the submission for asking the questions, it looks like the good, hard-hitting questions were totally ignored.
What's the point of having these/. interviews, regardless of who they're with, if all we get are answers to lame, uninteresting questions?
This isn't the only case where this has happened, of course. The same thing happened with the Linus Torvalds interview a few weeks ago. The best questions remained ignored, or if answered indirectly, the answers were pretty half-
Brianna Wu doesn't fail to disappoint yet again. Always ducking the hard questions. Too bad the truth is already out there, and failing to address it yet again only adds more confirmation. Cowardly to the end.
Exactly what I was thinking reading through this. She answered not a single negative comment, only the positive ones. Just like Cosby, if you don't respond to critics, they will bury you.
I am still very curious about her response to the accusations of her harassment and doxing of others. If she truly thinks these things are wrong when used against women, how can they be acceptable when used for a woman against people she disagrees with.
Also, though it is hardly my business, I would have loved to see her either confirm or deny all the comments about her being trans. There is nothing wrong with being this way, but it does kind of reduce credibility of her cause which may be why there was no answer either way.
I read every question, and most of the answers, I see none of the negative questions getting any response, it was like we all sucked up to her in the original article, rather than it being questions critical of her. Questions about the harassment and doxing she herself did to others, what sex she was born, if she herself was the source of the harassment she claims targeted her, and about the fact that people were able to prove she never left her house when she was "afra
Here's a thought: What the fuck business if it of yours what sex she was born? I mean, really? Who entitled you to that information? What fucking relevance is it what sex she was born? I mean behind the notions rattling around your gamergate addled brain.
Some trans adopt a hyper-feminist line to deflect attention from the whole question of their previous gender. It's a technique some trans also use to affirm their legitimacy as real women while attacking others and denying them the same courtesy. Slashdot should have asked the hard questions. Wu should realize that when you become a publicity whore you're fair game. Of course a denial would have produced proof to the contrary, and an admission after refusing to provide a clear answer for so long would make

That's very obviously not true.
