I tis called due process and frankly, people who are abused do not stay quiet. What has happened is that we have become intolerant and use COCs like Nazis. I AM sick of it all.
I will no longer remain silent when organizations create Codes of Conducts and harrass people with them and detroy reputions.
Learn the lessons of John Tennant, who was a great a man as any and destroyed by the abuse of CoC by a few radical activists.
In a free society, if you don't like someone, you don't talk to them. When you accuse someone of criminal activities, you procecute with due process.
You don't form lynch mobs.
