The woman who blew the whistle on Uber describes the terrifying fallout after she published details about the company's sexist work culture
But the aftereffects of publishing the post didn't stop there. Soon after, Fowler started noticing something strange: phone calls to her friends and family from people who seemingly didn't exist, asking probing questions about her past and her personal life. "Whistleblower: My Journey to Silicon Valley and Fight for Justice at Uber."
Fowler said investigators — who she believes were hired by Uber — began contacting people she knew as a child, former classmates, and even an old professor who had once written her a letter of recommendation. At one point, Fowler's childhood next-door neighbor told her, "Someone's digging really deep on you, Susan, and it's scary how far back they're going."
"The moment she told me that someone else had gotten into her account, I logged in and looked at the messages I'd recently sent her," Fowler wrote. "I watched as they went from 'unread' to 'read.'" In one incident, she came face to face with a man who was following her from work. She tried to lose him, changing directions, walking down random streets, and ducking into a Whole Foods, but she couldn't shake him.
