The proposal author (who locked the issue[0] on Github) also commented on HN and has, so far, remained silent here too: >>36825097

As far as I am concerned the reputation of this Ben Wiser guy is so far down the toilet that there’s practically nothing he can do or say to recover it.

Like the old joke goes “you screw a goat once…”

Both RupertBenWiser and yoavweiss reputations are fully gone from this. Pretty much the moment they closed an issue without a single comment [1], locked the repo from everyone else, and then a much later time claiming it was "spam" is a pretty dirty tactic [2].

Of course nothing happened to their reputations. Unfortunately there are very few people who care about this, or now who the people are in these proposals.

A reminder: the tech lead for AMP who promptly closed all discussions critical of AMP and AMP for email, and banned people who raised the questions repeatedly is now the CTO of Vercel.
