New Corporate Espionage Claims
A lawsuit has been filed in Utah federal court by Human Interest against Guideline, involving claims of corporate espionage.
"We are going to tear apart HI. It’s going to be the easiest thing to do."
This quote is from a text message sent by Brandon Sterri to his brothers on January 29, as stated in the complaint. At the time, Brandon and his brother Brian were still employed by Human Interest, while their third brother, Eirik, worked for Guideline.
- Brandon and Brian Sterri were still receiving paychecks from Human Interest.
- They were logging into company-issued laptops with reminders to protect confidential data.
- Eirik Sterri worked for the competing company, Guideline.
The lawsuit, filed by a law firm in Salt Lake City, alleges that the Sterri brothers did not just make threats, but took action.
