| Outgoing Twitter employee deactivates Trump's account |
| 2017-11-04 |
| [DAWN] A Twitter employee on their last day with the company was responsible for taking down Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... 's account, the social network said on Thursday, as the president resumed tweeting after the 11-minute outage. Twitter users visiting Trump's account around 7:00 pm were greeted with the message "Sorry, that page doesn't exist!" Twitter initially said the account had been "inadvertently deactivated due to human error", but later indicated it was done intentionally by a departing worker. "Through our investigation, we have learned that this was done by a Twitter customer support employee who did this on the employee's last day," it said. "We are conducting a full internal review," it said on the official Twitter Government account. Earlier today @realdonaldtrump’s account was inadvertently deactivated due to human error by a Twitter employee. The account was down for 11 minutes, and has since been restored. We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again. |

| #2 P2k, I'm not sure your suggestion is entirely practical especially in the case of employees who are leaving voluntarily. I think a prosecution for industrial sabotage might be more like it. |

| #1 Doesn't anyone know how to play this game? (Classical reference) You do not allow an employees access to the system after the decision has been made to terminate, voluntarily or involuntarily. Have security escort them to their desk/cubical to gather their personal belongings and to the personnel office for processing of paperwork. It's nothing personal, it's business. |
