"Lynch mob" in this case is people talking abput their own experiences.

People can talk about their own experience without "naming and shaming" other people.
Not really without naming. Because then you require them to keep others secrets and dance around what exactly happened.

And when it comes to abuse, the result of being outed as abuser is shame generally.
