Looks like it’s my turn to “out” a very unexpected visitor. 👀

On December 10, 2025, around 7 AM ET, my LinkedIn profile was viewed by Shweta Puri — the AI Operations & Business Technology Lead at #Nextdoor, the same leader whose team won two Iterable Expie Awards for excellence in customer communications and engagement.

Shweta… I have questions.

Was it:

- My good looks?

- My fantastic comment congratulating your team on the win?

- Or maybe… just maybe… my consistency in asking the difficult questions about the #Nextdoor platform, its lack of accountability, and a leader (yes, Nirav) who often says one thing publicly and behaves very differently behind the curtain?

Let’s be honest — it’s probably the comics. They hit hard, and they’re funny. 😄

Either way, Shweta, thank you for stepping out of the shadows. And I’m genuinely sorry for the “meeting” you’ll likely have with Nirav, where he positions your curiosity as a mistake instead of what great leaders actually do: learn all sides.

My door is always open if #Nextdoor ever wants transparency that goes in both directions.
