The switch was designed to trigger upon his termination
WTF?
!It’s tempting to consider getting revenge on a company for firing you.
In November 2007, Houston resident Davis Lu started working for power management company Eaton Corporation.

His work life went well until 2018, when a company-wide corporate realignment saw his role downsized.
The change included his responsibilities being reduced and his access to the firm’s computer systems limited.
Based on the DoJ’saccount, this spooked Lu into worrying that the company could eventually let him go.
As the name suggests, it checked that Lu’s account was enabled in the company’s Active Directory.
If it was, nothing happened.
Lu’s defense attorneys argued that the incident cost the company less than $5,000.
