True, but gossip is also normally shared between a few people in a private setting, and spreads organically that way. It is NOT shared publicly on the internet.
By spreading unconfirmed rumors on the internet, you are doing undue reputational damage that you CANNOT UN-DO. Imagine someone posting this about your institute and that showing up in search results.
This is completely unthoughtful and unnecessary behavior and it’s insane to me how much of that happens on this forum. I really expect better from a community that claims to be very smart.
