So I'm guessing that Giano was the alleged other account that was connected with "!!"? Why he wasn't blocked as well? Anyway, Durova picked a bad one to screw with. Giano is a scrapper and has no qualms about dispensing with the political bullshit. I can't wait for him to post the evidence in its entirety so we can see just what Durova considers to be ironclad when it comes to her "complex investigations."
It was not Giano. It was one of his friends, but since that person is well liked here (note: he has no account here, we just like him), we've opted not to divulge his previous account.
He exercised his right to vanish under his previous account and never used it again. He started over with !!, but got caught up in Durova's sock hunt and publicly humiliated. He followed policy but instead got whacked.
Poor person. I liked him!
Still, I don't think justice will be served. Durova will likely keep her buttons, but her standing in the Community is great diminished. Even when she might actually be right, she will always gain incredible scrutiny. No one's going to let her forget this incident. It will keep cropping up no matter what she does now.
