I think one can, but maybe experience has (wrongfully) taught some of those folks that it can actually be a positive experience.

If it weren't for the INCREDIBLY detailed, well-reasoned, documented blog post, and its ability to reach the front page, the tactics of the CEO would have actually succeeded. He did, indeed, take the project down, and took the threat seriously. What the CEO didn't anticipate was the intern's ability to get so much exposure on this.

I can see this tactic working 95% of the time, which is prob. why when it doesn't it REALLY doesn't.
