They have no relevance to GG but I wouldn't personally want to associate with someone if it came out they groomed/sexually assaulted a younger cousin a decade ago. It could very much be bullshit, especially after how well Milo going after Shaun King went down (stuck between your primary source either being a KKK member or a NEET domestic terrorist), but I haven't seen anything that shows it's either outright made up or severely taken out of context to the point where those logs aren't about what they look like they're about?The claims have no relevance to anything.
This doesn't seem as desperately pulling for controversy points with GG as pointing out journalists sometimes email each other about things at least.
The difference there is it takes about 5 seconds to disprove that stuff, sounds immediately stupid and is usually written/pushed by people who know it's stupid bullshit but their audience are thirsty enough for legitimacy to lap it up and cry 'conspiracy' when everybody else laughs at them for doing so. The only exceptions you'll get are stuff like a few (now ex) GG'rs claiming Gawker's CEO is secretly running GamerGate for easy money, because more media-savvy people like Milo are going to realize they could get their asses handed to them on a plate in a lawsuit if they seriously ran with something like that.Didn't they also try to smear Anita Sarkeesian as an arms dealer or was that one of their anti-Zoe Quinn ops?
Unfortunately I don't think Nyberg is in a similar position.
