How does Pari Passu newsletter guy not get caught?

Well known fact that the Pari Passu (restructuring) newsletter guy currently works in mega fund private equity (likely at Bain)

How or why does his firm allow him to run a newsletter on the side? I would assume there are strong outside business activity (OBA) clauses in his employment contract. Especially since he is sharing finance related content, there is no way his firm approved it right?

What do you think happens if the guy gets caught or outed?
