9 hours agoi don’t know why it surprises me… I know that the data is not encrypted, and that it is stored on their servers, but still, I thought the users had at least some minimum of privacy, at least from individuals working at Meta.
Two tired mice in a pail of milk, They swam around as best they could. But hope began to fade - what should they do? One wanted to drown itself, But its friend said, "No, no, no, For hope only triumphs, maybe, As long as we keep searching for it. Keep searching for it.

Something in this article strikes me, and that is the “download” part. Downloading this data was protected by internal security checks… But what about accessing the data without downloading it? Is that fine?? How much do these employees actually have access to? Most users probably haven’t enabled the message encryption.
I worked for a call center 10+ years ago, and if I searched for customers, which I had not talked to, in our internal CRM system, it would be flagged in an internal system, which potentially could end with employees being fired. I was an inbound customer service rep, and the only thing i thing i could get access to was their name, address and their phone bills… So, yeah, it just surprises me that the policies around accessing “private” data is so Laissez-faire.
