As much as it pains me to say it, the intentions of the initial group, the one which fashioned the snowball which went on down the mountain to grow into #GG, their intentions largely won out. They got what they wanted. Scattered success, but enough I assume for the fuckers to feel pretty pleased about themself. They managed to create that "smoke without fire" which I think Quinn's referring to. From way back, their intent was to, at the least, force Quinn out of the industry, with a hope that their actions additionally made her life a living hell and, disgustingly, with some having an ultimate goal of pushing at her history with mental illness to trigger her into doing something terrible. In addition to Quinn herself as a target, her 'shields' are also considered perfectly fair game.
Just some example images from their before-the-hashtag-happened prep:

Point being, as Quinn's blog suggests and regarding what she's so (obviously) furious about, the intention of the anti-Quinn(&etc) group that manipulated social media into becoming such a grand scale shitshow, their intentions largely bore out. They wanted to ruin Quinn's reputation, and, pockets here and there aside, they succeeded. There are still posts made now when Quinn's name is brought up, posts along the lines of "Zoe Quinn, isn't she that girl who fucked journos for good reviews or something?" Facts matter not one whit when rumour is like wildfire, or, if you prefer, a fire that was never there but there sure was a shitload of smoke.
