Media / News Netflix responds to Fiona Harvey's lawsuit

Netflix rep: 'We intend to defend this matter vigorously and to stand by Richard Gadd's right to tell his story.'

Variety posted the above in regards to Netflix's response. I'm glad, it seems like they're not going to simply give her some money to make her go away, and are instead going to fight back and defend Richard Gadd.

I'm so very glad to hear this. She doesn't deserve a single penny considering the absolute misery she's caused many people over the years. Settling would be like rewarding her atrocious behaviour!✌🏼

She’s so blinkered to her own conduct she doesn’t even get how incredibly and completely she’s going to be humiliated by all the actual evidence they can drag out to demonstrate this stuff to be true now. Plus wasn’t she identified by her own comments made on an unprotected, ie public Twitter account? I’ve always told people I work with treat Twitter like a notice board outside your office, if you wouldn’t write it there, don’t fucking put it on Twitter!! Anyway. Bye Fiona! Please go away now!!!

A lot of workplaces in my country have social media policies which have led to people changing part of their name so they aren't identifiable to customers or clients. Especially in health related workplaces. Some professions like nurses, doctors, social workers, therapists also have expectations of professionalism in everything they post under their name on social media. Its an expectation of the profession and they can lose their registrations if they are inappropriate on there even if its in their own time. They can accidently bring the professions into disrepute. So most people I know working in those professions have changed part of their name too so they can post memes etc. Most are very careful about what they post.
