Yeah that's the one I was looking at.

I'm not sure if I want to do it, because this is a relatively small company, it would be very clearly me who reported them, and the leader of this company is sort of a known sociopath who would probably not be above blackballing me and making it very hard for me to be employed.

It's a little depressing, because I wrote that blog post so that I people searching for how certain medications affect them could know what they were in for, I didn't think it would be weaponized against me, but I guess that was a little naive on my end.



"Blackmail" you how? It's sort of already "public" as it is. I would highly recommend reporting them anyways, but they choice is yours


I didn't say blackmail, I said blackball; basically "poison me in some markets". https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/blackball

I don't want to say the person's name in fear of getting a letter from an attorney, but this person is connected enough to where I am hesitant to do anything.
