A keylogger on the back of the boss' computer? A hardware VPN backdoor to the company's network? Oh maybe bring a flash drive full of malware and viruses and just drop it in the break room?
Please don't do this, you will be tried and probably end up in prison. There must better ways to be petty that won't give you problems with police and judicial system.
I was involved as a witness in two cases like this, not only it creates problem for you but a lot of other people as well.
Fill the curtain rods with fish. It'll take a few days for the smell to start, and weeks before anyone even thinks to check the curtain rods.
You didn't hear this from me, but I hear a lot of cubicle corners have removable caps that can make a great storage place for all kinds of interesting things.
A dish wash sponge, soaked in ascorbic acid.
It does no damage, is hard to find, easy to clean up when found... But best of all... It smells 100x worse than the fish in the rods.
You’ll want to wipe that for prints, just to be clear
Gonna have to do a hell of a lot more than that if they're actually trying to get away with it opposed to disrupting things for it/cybersecurity.
Is the last line (flash drive full of malware left in the break room) actually illegal?
All these things are illegal.
I'm not saying don't, I'm just saying don't leave fingerprints (physical or digital)
What is the crime called for just dropping a stick?
Well if you were using that malware to gain remote access to a system or to exfil data, then that would be clear cut unauthorised access of a computer / network.
But if the malware wasnt giving you data and access, then it would probably be acting with intent to damage a computer system or network.
You might argue that the fault lies on the person who picked it up and plugged it in, but by that logic, it wouldn't be illegal to distribute rat poison at a dog park or to set rabbit traps in a playground.
Worse case, it might count as littering? 🤔
