Tim O’Reilly issued a Draft Blogger’s Code of Conduct in response to the blogging ethics questions raised by death threats and other nastiness in comments at Kathy Sierra’s blog. Excerpts:
- We take responsibility for our own words and for the comments we allow on our blog.
- We won’t say anything online that we wouldn’t say in person.
- We connect privately before we respond publicly.
- When we believe someone is unfairly attacking another, we take action.
- We do not allow anonymous comments.
- We ignore the trolls.
