Waving the spy says that men have followed him and that his wife is afraid

If becoming a spy looks like an exciting way of living as a square character, leave this new affidavit of the corrugated spy admitted Keith O’Brien to be a warning.

On Friday, an Irish judge granted O’Brien an order for the prohibition against several men who have not yet been identified, according to the court order seen by Techcrunch. O’Brien testified that several men – two in a superb gray Skoda on a occasion, and more often, a heavy man with short hair in a black SUV, sometimes accompanied by a large dog – had repeatedly followed his car and watched his house.

The story of O’Brien has captured the imagination of the technological industry after His colorful confession In April, in which he allegedly allegedly allegedly. He said he had been paid € 5,000 per month to steal internal Rippling data on everything, from products to customers. The undulation caught up with him by creating a Honeypot Slack channel. The day he was caught, O’Brien pretended to rinse his phone in the company’s toilet and then broke it, dropping pieces in his mother-in-law’s house, according to his affidavit.

Now he’s the star witness to undulating in his trial against Deel. The ripple is Even take the tab for its legal and related expensesHis lawyers testified. Deel is also thwarts the rippleclaiming that he was spied on too, by A wavy employee being the ampondation of a client. The two HR technological companies have been bitter rivals for years after Deel – once a rolled client – has started to offer competing products.

In the last part of the saga, O’Brien testified that he had tried to lose the black SUV after his car by making sudden turns and taking ways to go home, only to see her reappear in her mirror. He hired a security consulting company and feared that someone will place monitoring devices on his car.

O’Brien says that all of these incidents have created “emotional and psychological” damage to him and his wife. “We have experienced anxiety at home and in public. It affected our sleep and our concentration,” said O’Brien in his latest affidavit. They are afraid of the safety of their four children.

He and his lawyer hypothesized that this was intended as harassment linked to his role as a star witness. However, O’Brien’s lawyer also admitted to the court that they had no evidence binding men to Deel. Deel also denied knowing anything about man in the black SUV.

According to The Irish Publication Business PostWhen the injunction is granted, the judge apparently said: “As if they were in a television program for cops and thieves” in the 1970s.

Whatever happens in the business of the court in duel, O’Brien had the rope in a bitter war arm between these two well -funded HR startups. And from what he says in his testimony, it seems painful.
