I'm sure there is something here but I cant connect the dots.

There was a root shell left open, some muscle guy, and an allusion to a bomb with a concussion that authorities dont need a warrant.

If you cant connect the dots, welcome to the club.

Well I believe my private emails were read by the authorities and they thought I was about to sabotage the trading systems at the bank.
Ahh, I see.

You know that your employer does not need a warrant to look at what you might think of as "your email" right?

Morale of the story is to continue collecting a pay check working in the financial industry, while believing the financial industry is corrupt and while also protesting the financial industry.
A story about something that happened to me 10 years ago that proved that when the financial system feels threatened all legalities fly out of the window.
Its a bit confusing. I guess the overall point is that its someone elses computer?
