**AITA for getting my boss fired after I “ethically hacked” his Tinder to prove he was cheating on his wife, but accidentally exposed the company’s entire client list instead?**
So this girl Anna Kepner (28, LinkedIn “Thought Leader”) thought she was the main character in *Mr. Robot*. She got hired as a “cybersecurity intern” at some sketchy startup, but got butthurt when they didn't give her a corner office after week one.
TL;DR: She decided to “ethically hack” her boss’s Tinder to prove he was cheating. Except she used the company’s VPN, logged into his account via a shared browser (lol), and then got so excited that she accidentally posted the entire client database to a public Pastebin while trying to screenshot his DMs.
Now the company is being sued for 12 million, her boss is divorced AND unemployed, and Anna is being investigated by the FBI. She’s currently crowdfunding for a lawyer and calling herself a “whistleblower.”
Reddit, AITA for thinking she’s just a dumbass who watched too many YouTube tutorials? Also, her new OnlyFans is literally called “EthicalHacker69.”
**Edit:** Thanks for the gold, kind stranger! And no, I’m not Anna. Stop DMing me. 💀
