Why some of them seem downright gleeful about every American shortcoming or perceived shortcoming.

I'm an apartment building superintendent, meaning I live in the same building that I manage.

Whether it's a water leak, fire alarm, someone having a medical crisis, or something else, I'm usually called for an emergency of one kind or another at least once every 48 hours. In theory, someone could die if paramedics are delayed by a locked door or the fire department doesn't know which units have elderly/disabled people who need evacuation assistance.

Did they actually defame the guy, or were they just being mean?

People who use "I didn't know who it belonged to" to justify stealing things.

Sure. But they can't advertise on that point. So they claim it's for malware and tracking protection even though that makes no sense.

harassed or bullied, to stand up to that behavior and tell them that you’re not going to take their shit, and if they continue you fucking quit and never look back.

In the USA, workplace harassment and bullying are generally illegal. The employer is obligated to do something about it. If they don't, then don't quit: sue.

I thought the 'security' angle was just a smokescreen anyway. Isn't it actually for accessing region-locked media?
