That's not so much a matter of opinion as of what her role is, exactly. I don't know. Do you?

The article says she's a security engineer. It would be pretty unlikely for a security engineer's job to include messaging employees about HR rules. It sounds more like this engineer modified a security tool to spam a bunch of coworkers with pro-union popups.

And if the outcome of a trial produces otherwise, would you be willing to retract such baseless claims?
