To everyone here saying “duh he got fired” I would ask you to step back and think about the implications.
Why would you take the side of a corporation covering a legitimate data breach over an employee that is broadly sharing that information? Why would you support a company trying to censor its employees on their personal social media page?
Yes, the employee can be reasonably and legally fired. But this isn’t the society we should be striving for and we should feel angry at Zoom’s response
- lamontcg 5y agoYou're conflating pointing out how the world works, with defending the way that the world works. I can think that in an ideal world he wouldn't get fired, but I also agree 100% with "duh he got fired". I'm also not sure that even in a reasonable ideal world that this wouldn't be consequence-free. He's inherently burning the political capital of anyone managing the relationship between those two companies and stressing their relationship. Even if the law doesn't allow the company to terminate him, there will probably still be social consequences. People don't behave like robots and they get annoyed at other people. And if those people managing that relationship were so perfect that they could always understand the larger picture, and if the whole world was composed of people who were that perfect, we would never be in this situation because Okta would never have mismanaged the breach that badly.
