Bringing meaningful questions to ask the interviewer, especially if they are part of the team you will be working for is a good idea (sometimes). I have asked if certain kinds of questions to see what kind of experience the tech-lead interviewer has - and sometimes to see what kinds of hands on things he/she might do themselves personally. One off the top of my head, something like:
"You asked a lot of questions about Hibernate, how do you use it in your day-to-day? Do you use a 2nd level cache? How?" or something like that... But it depends on the interviewer...
On that note:
I would never grill the interviewer taser questions in the same manner they might grill myself. Even though interviewing is a way to evaluate the organization, in the end, I'm the one looking for a job and I think unnecessarily pissing off the interviewer each time isn't wise decision. But that's just my 2 cents there.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse

Great post.
