The PyCon incident blew up because of the tweeted picture, which to many of us was _far_ worse than the stupid joke. Complain to the organizers, sure. Make fun of them at the conference, even.

But the tweeted picture to a large number of followers took it well into harassment, where the joke wasn't.

Hard to imagine anything more horrible or harassing than posting a photo of someone.

Do you seriously not understand that the problem is not that she "posted a photo of someone", but the context?

That photo got two people fired. Seems serious enough to me.
