There isn't a lot of information, for what it's worth I would be interested in how "public" his confrontation was, depending on that this could be more of a knee-jerk "this person is yikes" vs. sinister "don't stray from the party line"

Extremely public: https://twitter.com/aweary/status/1267895488205869057 - so public in fact, he brought the private messages out publicly as well.

As much as I want to be sympathetic, if I was his co-worker I would feel very publicly harassed especially when the co-worker explicitly was conferring to him privately.

Sure shame the monolith that is FB, I would even say shame Zuckerberg he controls the place. But don't shame a fellow engineer who you work with, he didn't have any say in what FB was doing.

Also long term ineffective, if you promote a culture of shaming private conversations, then nothing happens because no one talks.
