Cyber Research, a firm which monitors computer usage for companies, has confirmed that at least one person has been fired for viewing the video while other workers were around, and others have been fired for sharing it with colleagues.

Founder of the firm Steve Byrne said that many of the companies they are hired by had three to five employees who had searched for the video while at work.
