Actually people knew who she was since she did release Revolution 60 on the Ipad. Some reviews are dated before this whole GG stupidity started.

Check the dates on those.
And congratulations you managed to completely prove them right. There were actual death threats against her, she was forced out of her house by doxxers and stalkers, there was an insane man who crashed his mom's car on his way to her house. She alerted the police in Massachusetts. I am guessing all the harassment is true since the police really hate being sent on wild goose chases. And the courts aren't very happy with it either:

Also if criticism is something along the lines of: "She is manipulating people with her vagina, is insane and needs to go back to the kitchen and not make videogames" than yea I am quite happy she doesn't respond to you.
And what does Patreon have to do with anything? If anything it proves that GG is nothing more than a few thousand people at most, not a "consumer revolt" (pfft as if).
Edit: The Patreon money goes to her company, to hire women in tech advocacy- AKA people to sort through the BS she goes through.
