I'd say leaking an employer's internal data when not whistleblowing is definitely cause for termination, in the "no future employer should trust you" way, but yeah, calling this a CFAA case is a stretch.

Agreed, he could be fired and even sued by his former employer for damages.

But calling using your cell phone to video record a security monitor "computer fraud" and "trespass" is clearly ridiculous.
