If a former employee goes out of their way to sabotage your business, your company might have an issue with its corporate culture.
As in the vibes are bad.
Either that, or you managed to really p/o that one employee. (red stapler anyone?)

I'm unsure of how SK Hynix operates within their offices because all I ever hear about is how bad Samsung is, so I'm not drawing any conclusions without such evidence.

Counter-example: Or that employee was so bad that they were fired, and said employee wants to trash them out of spite.

This sounds like corporate inside espionage, with the expected payoff being a higher-paying job with a future employer - especially one that doesn't care about NDAs or IP rights.

It is obviously a fake
SK does not have business for CMOS image sensors .
This is intentionally made a fake story. Too bad for Tom hardware to make up fake things

That is laughable fake . An employee applied another job that is not illegal thing, he attached something with his resume, that is ok....

I’m not sure what you mean. He allegedly downloaded thousands of documents. Here is the business segment they mentioned. That was certainly real. https://www.trendforce.com/news/202...mid-weak-demand-and-fierce-china-competition/

I meant the content itself was fake. SK CIS business is gone... Huawei has better CiS sensor then another. The Huawei Pura 70 ultra phone camera rating as No.1 of the best camera phone for 10 months from 2024 to today, before that No.1 was Huawei Mate 60 Pro for another another 10 months at the top position https://www.dxomark.com/smartphones/

It’s crazy that Chinese companies have become so well known for IP theft that people just show up with random info like “Hire me. I got the goods”.
