I think it’s fine. Calling this an “interaction” is a pretty significant understatement.

You’re going to get sued over a handful of text or not liking somebody. If you decide to run a campaign to harass an employee into quitting/suicide/etc, and throw in death threats, along with packages delivered to their residence… You should 100% get what’s coming to you.

That should be part of criminal justice not a justice case. If the company I work would get half a mil for the pain I get put through they would drag me through even more shit. Without an extra penny.

I’ll just retort to mercenary work
