"We have zero tolerance for any action that makes a sufficient number of people on Twitter mad." — de facto policy of most organizations

People complain about the mobs but those have existed for all times. The weak link that needs to be fixed seems to be milquetoast employers.
It was much harder for mobs to form before social media. That's why we have a problem now that we didn't have 20 years ago.

what some might call a mob; others call an uprising. one persons terrorist is another persons patriot. seems that twitter has optimized the process. its a feature, not a bug.

Before social media, the definition of mobs was limited to actual mobs

Surely some part of this must also be the increasing power of the consumer (both as an individual & a collective). Mobs don't have much sway when all important business is Enterprise-to-Enterprise. But now a great deal of economic purchasing power has been democratized!

People compare it likes it's a 2x difference. "We had mobs before the internet". But the difference is exponential. Instead of the person in the next town being angry you now have someone on the other side of the world trying to get you fired.
