TLDR looks to be a IT contractor to this health care company laid off someone but let them keep their IT access. That person then for "reasons unknown" stole a ton of patient records.
I know its popular online to complain about being cutoff from access when being let go. This might be a counterpoint to that outrage?
- haswell 2y agoNot only is this a counterpoint, but the outrage never made sense to begin with, IMO. It’s so easy to imagine the kinds of harm a disgruntled employee can cause with the right access that it’s hard to imagine why anyone would be upset at an appropriately swift access revocation process.
- KeepFlying 2y agoI've never understood that outrage with one exception. Especially when you're remote it's painful to get immediately cut off from communication apps and not having a chance to say goodbye to people. When someone leaves willingly they get a chance to send one last email with a personal contact method for people to keep in touch. If you're let go you don't get that chance. I wish there was a way to remove access to everything except that, but sadly I can't think of anything foolproof.
