this could be a boon for lifeline

Sure a million angry pedo bashers will see these tweets and possibly look up lifeline, but what are they going to find? Acceptance and love for whoever wants it and a swift kick in the ass for anyone who wants to start trouble. Trolls and haters will quickly get bored. Actual MAPs and allies on the other hand might find out about lifeline via this article and if they check the chat out and like it, maybe they will eventually become the next generation of "ears." Maybe someone rich will see the site and be impressed and start donating that $4k/year free spirits needs to operate. Hopefully those new people be careful. Situations like the one on the plane and the situation the OP brought up last week are valuable lessons in what happens when people don't protect their own privacy, but also possibly lessons about how to turn a whoopsy incident into a conversation that doesn't necessarily lead down the path of doom like some might assume it would.
