Yes, people witnessing things should be doing more. The whole issue of the
bystander effect could fill whole dissertations. Not every CoC violation
is easily witnessed.

The problem is, everytime someone says "I've not seen it", it is
interpreted by people as "it's not happening". We shouldn't have to go
into detail of what happened for people to believe us that harrasssment
and CoC violations are happening. 

And my name is Julia not Julie.
