I might care if they paid me a living wage.
I’m all for acting your wage, but I don’t want to make victims of anyone who is interacting with my company simply because I was feeling spiteful. The company will be fine, the tons of people who just had their information leaked are the ones who are truly inconvenienced and may face financial repercussions later on when their information is distributed. Just something to consider
Pay people enough and this is less likely to happen.

A lot of hacking is actually social engineering. It’s not hard to get a tech-illiterate person to give up their password, and that’s the softest target for an attack.
Nowadays you’d probably be more likely to get a hit by putting an “Anime titties” label on the drive

the softest target
Managment making notes
All employes must be buff.
Fitness trainings for everyone are now mandatory!
Problem solved.
I am so sick of everyone asking me for my password with no spaces or capitals.
Or even jaded tech savvy people. I work in IT and there have been a number of times that I have witnessed or heard about people who know better causing an incident because they’re burnt out or irate.
A good portion of the movie Hackers was social engineering. That’s how Mitnick got into a lot of systems as well. Why search for vulnerabilities in apps when people are much easier to manipulate.
