No, the problem here is that werner was the unemployed wife parading around and pretending to be like her husband, another cofounder. Tbh I though all this was going to keep low, like unrepentant psycho werner here getting her ass and her stupid "charity" banned from github HQ, but given that preston himself got the boot not voluntarily mind you but by pressure from github's board shows you this is serious business, and that whatever happens is clear werner made a huge fuckup here.
Corporate lawyers are able to spin anything out of sight and yet here you have a COFOUNDER being forced out due to what at simple view (and according to github PR) seems like a minor office fight the like HR handles everyday.
Its obvious this is serious, who knows how many disgruntled employees felt compelled to talk now that werner has been exposed, and thats why not just her but the husband/cofounder himself are now out of the company, to avoid a massive public scandal. The level of attention this has gotten so far is outstanding.
My advice to anyone here is stay away from any startup where the founder's family is involved, and specially couples. If you think brogrammers are annoying try dealing with a stuck up idiot who is only there for being related to the boss.
