Tarnishing the brand, ruining trust in the brand (while boasting about me working for the company when assessing job applicants)

Summary: Sirius 'Open Source' basically robbed my colleagues and I for many years; many of us conveniently ignored a warning in the second year when they lied to us about a legally blind colleague after they had viciously, abruptly suspended her for no good reason and shut down Jabber for everyone (making up some lies and trying to prevent colleagues from talking to one another). We reckon it's a common issue that many people can relate to as many people lie and many worked for someone like this some time in the past. We are now fully aware that we too were being lied to (in 2022 it became "normal" to lie to clients and to staff; they lied to my colleagues the same way they lied to me). My colleagues did not stop to think if they were being lied to, or worse, robbed. They threatened staff not to speak to one another, especially former staff. Many skeletons in this closet.
