When Teemu Airamo moved into a WeWork office in Manhattan in 2015, he found he could access hundreds of other companies’ devices and records on the building’s network. The company has since expanded to more than 100 offices around the world, including one in New York City, where it now employs about 200 people. More than four years later, after making numerous attempts to elevate the issue to WeWork’s senior management, Airamo said nothing has changed. He routinely scans WeWork’s network and claims he can view an array of confidential information belonging to other companies surrounding his office.
