1. The piece being cited is not an article or investigative report. It is explicitly labeled as a blog post authored by a marketer. A third-party blog post is not primary evidence. I am not aware of any direct evidence in that post showing that I doxxed anyone. If such evidence exists, it should be identified specifically and evaluated on its merits rather than asserted by reference.
2. To my knowledge, my commentary consisted of clearly labeled estimates and opinions regarding Codesmith’s unit economics, expressed in the same analytical manner I have applied to multiple programs across the industry.
3. With respect to allegations of harassment or improper conduct, I again ask for evidence. My understanding is that I was removed from Codesmith sessions and Slack after stating, under my real name during a Zoom call, that a student described as “placed” was no longer employed at the company identified by the speaker. That statement was factual at the time it was made. I had one account on CSX Slack, under the name "Michael" and my work email address. No other conduct was cited to me as a basis for removal.
If people think I did stuff and didn't have evidence, then that is exactly the kind of rumors-stated-as-fact that can be defamatory. You have to have evidence when you state something as fact, otherwise qualify the statement.
