2, it really does irk me when you freely talk about the possibility of
booting listmembers or making a "web of shame."

Me:
Actually, I hate to say this, but I have to go farther than that.  The very
possibility that such a website will be created makes it very likely that I
will be leaving the list in the very near future.  While, as I have stated
in the past, I have no fear of anyone judging my posts in context, the firm
that I will be joining is extremely publicity and controversy averse.  Were
any supervisor of mine to come across it, there's no doubt in my mind that I
would be immediately instructed to leave the list, and that I would probably
be viewed with disfavor anyways.  I have the highest opinion of McKinsey,
but I don't think they'd _care_ about the details, they just don't like
controversy in any form.  I simply can't afford to take on that level of
risk at this point in my career when no larger principle seems to be at
stake.
