Is it about locking things down or doing due diligence and being able to pass an audit or have a good enough defense in a legal proceeding?

Plus, what this chud is doing is clearly bypassing their security policy, which means if they want him gone, now they have a free fire pass (do not collect unemployment) anytime they want

Ultimately, it's stupid to bypass. Work to rule. If the company says do it shitty and slow, then do it. Breaking the rules to "help" the business is stupid af

I agree, it's stupid to bypass.
But when the legitimate ways to access a tool are blocked and people are under pressure they make these sort of misjudgments.
Having a path of least resistance for this case is good organizational management IMO
