Thank you for the appreciation, it was in part my goal to normalize mistakes and to treat them in a light manner.

I in particular object to kicking a man when already down, which is a common behavior these days.

I think spreading awareness of the error, pointing out the stupidity of it, or taking entertainment value from it is really cruel. I'm sure the person involved is aware they screwed up and is embarrassed, so all these piled up messages only hurt.

And I still think it was incredibly harmless. Any individual would get at most one useless email, which contained nothing inappropriate.

As said, this intern must professionalize in their errors, as this is not a pro level screwup.
