Being unethical is not illegal. Doing criminal acts is illegal.

Reading tge Ars Tecnhica articel, it looks like vengence and not a legit beef. Who knows if CC was even inna role privy to the comcast account in any substanative way.

And in this case, you're saying that coercion is perfectly legal?

(edit) .. "Comcast told PwC that O'Rourke had tried to use his employment there as leverage in making his complaints"
