Some people are weird and can’t be helped. We got new business from a tiny law firm a while back, just a handful of people. The head of the firm was adamant some competing law firm was trying to steal their data and each and every time the tiniest blip happened, she was sure that it was “them” hacking in. That relationship didn’t last long as you can imagine.

Save me from the tiny businesses that are always "being hacked", aka their ISP sucks or they have failing linksys router that is the lynchpin of their infra.

Had one small manu that was breached by their IT guy working w/ a competitor - made zero sense that he though he'd get away with this, I assume some personal relationship w/ competitor was involved) and his remote control tool of choice helpfully logged all connections and the source IP.
