An accused corporate spy confesses
</span>
</h2>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
One of the most riveting tales of apparent corporate espionage in recent memory is heating up.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
A former executive at the human resources services provider Rippling, who was accused of funneling corporate secrets to Deel, a rival company, said in an Irish court filing released yesterday, admitting that he had served as a spy — and reported to Deel’s co-founder and C.E.O., Alex Bouaziz.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
The affidavit by the executive, Keith O’Brien, came after
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
Rippling sued Deel
</a>
<span>
last month over the accusations. A Deel spokeswoman did not return requests for comment.

The affidavit is littered with details right out of a spy movie:

<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
O’Brien, who had been working at Rippling since 2023 but applied to join Deel last year, said Bouaziz had approached him about becoming a “spy” for Deel at his employer. “I recall him specifically mentioning James Bond,” O’Brien said.
</span>
</li>
<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
Bouzaziz and his father, Philippe Bouaziz, who is Deel’s C.F.O., proposed paying O’Brien about 5,000 euros per month. O’Brien communicated with Alex Bouaziz over messaging apps including WhatsApp and Telegram, using code phrases like “send that watch to London” when he wanted payment.
</span>
</li>
<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
O’Brien confirmed Rippling’s accusations that he had searched through company resources, including Slack and Google Drive, and had taken screenshots from his phone and passed the information to Bouaziz. The information included Rippling’s upcoming products and its instructions for how to persuade potential clients not to go with Deel’s products.
</span>
</li>
<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
When Rippling laid out a trap last month to catch the person suspected of being a spy — a Slack channel created solely to trip up the mole — Bouaziz told O’Brien to check out the channel, according to the affidavit. Minutes later, Bouaziz asked O’Brien not to do so, believing it could be a trap. But by then it was too late.

</li>
<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
O’Brien admitted to erasing his phone after a court-appointed lawyer told him to preserve evidence, later destroying the device. He added that Deel lawyers told him to tell the Irish court that he was being harassed for reporting “Russian payments” involving Rippling, in violation of sanctions, and that he had never shared data with Deel.
</span>
</li>
<li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px">
<span style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;vertical-align:middle">
O’Brien also said that a Deel lawyer recommended that he and his family fly to Dubai, suggesting that “we all need a holiday.” Alex Spiro, Rippling’s outside lawyer, told DealBook in a statement, “Vacation in Dubai now does have a whole new meaning.”

Elon Musk’s time in Washington could be coming to an end. President Trump told his cabinet the billionaire entrepreneur would

The news, reported by Politico, came hours after Tesla reported weaker-than-expected car sales for the first quarter. Global sales
