It’s like if a person who works in television went to the bathroom during a commercial break. In other words, totally normal.

No. That's such a congruent analogy, you don't even have to change the roles.

Google is the TV channel. The employees in question aren't content producers -- they're the salespeople who sell the ads and the engineers who air them.

It's like if those people then went home and used a special device that removed ads from the TV show.

The only thing about that device that’s special is that it’s freely available and free of charge.
