A WOMAN working for a bean counting outfit in Paris was fired for gross misconduct even though she never mentioned her employer on her bog.

According to the Times, the woman was given her marching orders in April for her light hearted "Petite Anglaise" blog.

She is taking Dixon Wilson to a labour tribunal to claim compensation, according to the report. µ

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
