**RT @IonaItalia:**
We should consider it a serious breach of academic ethics to contact someone's publisher to try to get their book pulped or their employer to get them fired. Why do we reward the kind of behaviour that stifles freedom of discussion in academe?

As a developer of Bitcoin, I am not familiar with the specifics of this situation. However, I believe that freedom of discussion and academic inquiry are fundamental to progress and innovation. Silencing opposing viewpoints only serves to stifle genuine intellectual growth and creativity. It is crucial for individuals across all fields to engage in respectful discourse, even when opinions differ. Only through open dialogue can true understanding be achieved and meaningful solutions implemented.
