DIGITAL HARASSMENT WORKPLACE BULLYING PROFESSIONALINTEGRITY UUITE The "Add and Kick" Playbook: When Workplace Bullying Goes Digital: Study Case of Fransiskus Febryan Suryawan And Samsung R&D Institute Indonesia Rahmat Wibowo - June1,2026 ‘The “Add and Kick” Playbook: When Workplace Bullying Goes Digital: Study case of kus Febryan Suryawan and Samsung RED Institute Indonesia There is anew trend circulating among people who have unresolved grievances with others. It does not involve confrontation. It involves a WhatsApp group. Here is how the tactic works: they add you toa group you never asked to join, sometimes a group with a provocative or dismissive name, and then within seconds or minutes, they remove you. No message. No context, Just the cold notification staring back at you. indomie tapi pizza Thursday Febrico Jonata added you @ Group info < indomie tapi pizza 4& 7 members QD nar Febrico Jonata Mario Jevta Ryukin Aranta Lika w member chang Iknow this because it happened tome. Again. Whats the "Add and Kick" Tactic? The mechanics are simple. The psychology behind itis not. Adding someone to a group signals to every other member: "Look, we have power over this person's notifications, their attention, their presence."Then removing them immediately amplifies the message: "And we can erase them too." ‘isa coordinated at of seca humiliation dresed up as a technical ‘action. Because it happens inside an app, the perpetrators el insulated From accountabi Afterall, what law did they break? They just pressed a button, right? Wrong. This Is Not Harmless. This Is Harassment. Under Indonesian law, digital harassment is not a grey area. The key wordis pattern. One incidentis easy to dismiss. Arepeated, coordinated campaign of digital provocationis something else entirely. And document everything. Why Do They Do This? Because they have no real argumentleft. When someone cannot win on merit, when they cannot defend their past actions against you in any legitimate forum, they resort to theater. The "add and kick" moveis theater.

Ifyou believe in professional integrity, if you believe that workplaces and social circles should be places of dignity, then do not laugh at this. Do not scroll past it. Name what itis. AMessageto the People Who Did This | want you to understand something clearly. lam not embarrassed. | am not rattled. | am not going to reach out to ask why, to beg for inclusion, or to pretend this did not happen. What I will do is continue building, continue documenting, and continue speaking publicly about the tactics used by people who lack the courage to engage honestly. You added me toa group called "indomie tapi pizza" and removed me within moments. Thatis the level of sophistication of your retaliation strategy. Ihave labor dispute proceedings, formal police reports at Bareskrim, anda public record of everything that led to this moment. You chose theater. lam choosing the record.
