According to the article, Kojima Productions is now known as "Number 8 Production Department," and that computers in that part of the company are not connected to the internet, to prevent communication with the outside world. Most Konami employees don't have their own email addresses, but are instead assigned randomized addresses that are changed every few months in order to prevent headhunting. Cameras in the halls monitor employee movements, and those who take too long for lunch are shamed by having their names announced to the entire company; employees who are no longer "useful" in game development roles are assigned jobs as security guards, cleaning staff, or at a pachi-slot machine factory.
