Here you go[1].

The audacity of that email was that it made accessing "need-to-know" documents internally (!!!) a fireable offense.

In a kafkaesque move, "need-to-know" was not determined by labeling or access restrictions. Therefore, you can't know you are accessing a "need-to-know" document until you do.

In short, this made using internal search engine fireable. It made clicking any link on the mail list fireable.

That was a year and a half ago.
