>A press release by federal prosecutors said Ticketmaster employees held a division-wide summit during which the stolen passwords were used to access the victim company's computers "as if that were an appropriate business tactic." >According to the deferred prosecution agreement, a Ticketmaster executive described that the goal was to "choke off" the victim company and "steal back" one of its clients. This sounds insane. The article started out just describing a single employee abusing their unrevoked access to their previous company's systems, but it's mind-boggling that executives and huge swaths of the company would openly and actively participate. That sounds more unethical than even the shadiest of the Uber "intelligence gathering" revelations.
