A lot of people like to think that big corporations won't bend to loonies but they totally will, very very easily.
I actually know a guy who got fired from an executive level corpo position because his insane BPD cokehead ex called them 200 times a day accusing him of being a serial rapist. They knew it was a lie but fired him anyways in order to get the phone calls to stop.
Doing the wrong thing was quicker and easier than doing the right thing so that's what they did.
This is just the same fucking shit.
