Sure, or if you're being polite, or even short in a reasonable way "I'd rather not discuss this privately," that is fine.
Lori's emails are deliberately designed to goad Vlad into replying, just to act indignant when he does.

This is not goading, this is telling someone to fuck off into the sun. If he wants to respond he can respond on his product with a blog post. His audience already dwarfs hers anyways, he Streisand-effect'ed himself because he's clearly got some narcissism issues.
Dunno, I don’t think I’m a narcissist but I get unreasonably pissed off about people talking nonsense without giving me a chance to respond as well.
