    Wow. What a dumb idea to promote your company.

      Don’t sell him short. This was a sequence of dumb ideas.

      • hacking a hospital without approval
      • stealing patient results
      • tweeting stolen patient results
      • disrupt hospital communication systems.
      • disrupting hospital printers and wasting their resources.

      Each of those steps should have triggered a rational person to reevaluation their choices…
