LanceHunter posted:Wait, they're turning off everyone's badge access tonight, and then will be turning it back on for those who stay? That is psychotic. Also, unless they are also doing that with VPN and system access as well then it doesn't really help prevent a disgruntled employee from loving things up. I think it's more about preventing a mass shooting than preventing sabotage
