If someone tells you to stop emailing them after 1 email don't send 2 more. It's that easy

Sure. But the first time they said "don't email me any more", it was actually more like "Don't email me any more... and another thing! X Y Z." playing an equally petty game of "who gets the last word".

After posting a blog entry specifically targeting and naming someone, their business, posting it on the internet and starting a Mastodon thread.

I'm all for generally leaving people alone, and being civil, but context please.

You don't get to open a salvo against someone, while pretending you're above interaction with them, then play the victim when they respond and universally and unilaterally dictate terms while always trying to get the last word in.

If you want someone to not e-mail you, tell them (if that) and block them. It's that easy, unless you're baiting
