I've also seen this in comments:

Yeah his public comments are just the tip of the iceberg. He's been a creep for decades at MIT and wherever he went.

He has a phobia of plants so women at MIT have been using plants defensively: decorating their offices with lots of foliage, wearing plants etc, to avoid getting propositioned or groped by him. Seriously, defensive plants, it's that ridiculous.

After people told him that flat-out propositioning every women within earshot is not acceptable, he started handing out "pleasure cards" (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EEWlJXRWsAASHJw?format=jpg&name=small). Ewww.

It's a travesty that he remained at MIT/FSF this long given dozens of credible cases of abuse.
