We could just regulate tech companies and outright ban some practices but since we apparently don't have time for rational solutions...

Well thought out sabotage can be written off to causality or involuntary human error.

Not giving notice of lay off is an abusive work practice and only shows how far we've allowed work conditions to degrade.

And that practice itself can be highly dangerous, if we consider a person can be midway into a complex task that can turn extremely difficult to follow by another: waste of time, resources, energy and money.
