@brett@bitflipp.social @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @mattgriffin@masto.ai I said ''consider', because the thought would definitely cross my mind and I'd have to think about whether I wanted to. You might consider him harmless, other people might be made seriously uncomfortable.
I wasn't there in your specific situation, so I can't comment on the details of that one, but if I think there's a reasonable risk of somebody being made uncomfortable, I lean towards saying something.

@brett@bitflipp.social @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @mattgriffin@masto.ai I'm a fairly large, straight white male, comfortable with a respected job role. I've basically zero fears of retaliation. If I knew the guy, then saying "dude, a camera phone on the toilets might freak people out" might seem reasonable. Having HR so that if I don't know might seem reasonable. Saying nothing might seem reasonable. Never speaking up because you aren't uncomfortable, when you know others are, that seems much less reasonable
