Hello folks, welcome to program 381 of the technology blog and podcast series. We are going to start with an interesting video with Trend Micro that talks about customer success. Making sure customers are happy is the key to having a successful company, and this does not matter what the business is. Next, in our first article we're going to talk about, we're talking about one that should really have more of a punishment than 10 years. The article talks about a guy who basicly sabotoged his former employer after he got terminated. Thinking that he wouldn't be caught at whatever he got caught doing, he put in a kill switch which disabled the company computer network. If you read the article titled Developer">https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/developer-guilty-of-using-kill-switch-to-sabotage-employers-systems/">Developer guilty of using kill switch to sabotage employer's systems from Bleeping Computer, what did you think of it?
