100% agree. Logging sensitive data is something that we should never do, but in orgs with 100s-1000s of devs, it’s something that almost always happens. At some point somewhere a piece of middleware or whatever logs full request bodies, query params, etc., and nobody notices. It’s an incredibly common mistake because it’s so easy to catch, and so easy to not notice.
This is still a very significant by Facebook, but as a dev I understand how it happens. It’s a mistake that happens at the vast, vast majority of tech companies.
