It’s not the infidelity part, it’s the relationship with a subordinate part. That’s covered in HR training and is a fireable offense in every company I’ve been parr of.

Three things:
Selling GPUs and knowingly avoiding legal restrictions
A relationship with a foreign agent
An inappropriate relationship with a subordinate
Two of these potentially have serious legal consequences.
While it's a fireable offense, my experience with senior management has been that the company is more than happy to help cover it up for them... until they do a bad, and then it becomes a quick ticket to can them without having to admit the real reason for canning them.

Seems like that could actually map pretty well to this case.

It's in the handbook so that people who ignore the law don't have the excuse of ignorance.
It isn't an arbitrary policy.
