Zoe Quinn was once the victim of an awful online hate campaign at the hands of her ex-boyfriend in 2014. The 30-year-old video-game developer endured death and rape threats after her ex posted a blog about her online. While it pushed her to the edge, she came out the other side swinging.
“Their plan was to get me to kill myself if they didn’t do it first,” recalls Quinn. These days, she helps people like her deal with and fight back against online bullying with her Crash Override Network website. If that’s not admirable, we don’t know what is.
