Mar 17, 2021 at 21:38 comment added David @R..GitHubSTOPHELPINGICE If it used for the company, used on behalf of the company, used from the company, used/created/distributed/etc. via company resources (in any shape or form) then the company owns it. It is their legal property. Employees have no rights to anything involving their work, company, or any resources involved therein. They certainly cannot extort the company to return stolen property. Basically, good luck convincing a court that the OP did not (or attempt to) commit theft (allegedly) and then extort their former employer (allegedly).
Mar 17, 2021 at 0:28 comment added R.. GitHub STOP HELPING ICE @David: There is no property involved here. The OP likely did something wrong already in setting up these accounts with their personal email address, but the company failed to make a proper knowledge transfer happen before telling OP not to come back.
Mar 16, 2021 at 22:20 comment added David @R..GitHubSTOPHELPINGICE Providing some gracious assumptions and general US regulations: The OP would be obligated to return any and all company property, information, details, logins, etc. without any form of compensation. It belongs to the company and is their exclusive property. Upon termination, the employee must return all company property otherwise it can be considered theft under the law. There's no longer a compensation relationship there.
