Sounds like a canned damage limitation quote and not even remotely sincere (and doubt it is really an accurate reflection of reality either).

Anyway, where is the Sendgrid statement ? Their silence seems to be an endorsement of Adria's bad behavior (eavesdropping and then public humiliation via twitter).

I'm astonished that Sendgrid are OK with this.

There are 2 companies here I want to make sure I have no dealings with.

Saw this mentioned in another thread and it's a great point. SendGrid is going to back her 100%. They now realize, if they didn't before, that they have a risky employee on their hands - the type that would sue them and make a huge public spectacle (comparing herself to Joan of Arc, etc). They need to keep that bomb from going off and eventually she'll move on to focus fully on what she's passionate about.

@adriarichards Black people CANNOT be racist against White people. Racism is a position of the oppressor who has the power - http://i.imgur.com/ou8JZVu.jpg
