Nobody is asking you to break the law. Nobody is implying that you even hypothetically _might_ break the law. But we _are_ trying to make it clear that you can always not break the law in a way that clearly communicates how stupid the law is and how little interest you have in complying with the spirit of the law, or with anything more than the bare minimum that the letter of the law requires.

People have been half-assing compliance for as long as compliance has been a thing. Do some research, talk to a lawyer, and then build only the half of the ass necessary to keep lawsuits off your back.

She was fired for taking 10 minutes to reply to emails. Then she made sure they’d regret it.

[REPOST] Worker Gets Around His Casual Office's 'No Shorts' Dress Code Using Malicious Compliance

Taking a few seconds to entertain myself by reporting emails from campus police as phishing. The university does phishing tests, encouraging everyone to examine where links lead before clicking them, and telling us to never trust a link we don't recognize. University cops, I think, are using some kind of external email distribution service, which has a link to acknowledge receipt of the police email. The email is within hours of announcements about a campus situation (vague "individual in custody" thing).

I suppose it's possible IT is capitalizing on the situation to really seriously test our phishing savvy. I kind of hope not. I hope it's the cops using an unverified email distribution and tracking service that is almost certainly stealing some data from every click, and that I'm calling attention to how shitty this is by reporting all these emails as phishing.
