In his slight defense... he *thought* he was talking trash in private, he didn't actually post anything on social media. Should have saved it for happy hour. Guess that's why that switch is spring-loaded to off (but everybody uses a rubber band to hold it in the on position).
Interesting. That's not at all the outcome I heard from some of my SW co-workers at the sq. According to one of them, said individual actually profited from the whole thing. He was paid a hefty settlement due to the company's purported mishandling of his identity when the flight attendant and other interested groups attempted and/or succeeded to doxx him. As to the wife, I heard she very much transactionally stayed with him (kept wives know what side their bread is buttered on...).

But this is all RUMINT. Open to stand corrected. Life ain't fair is all I got out of the anecdote tbh.
