Two things changed drastically:
1. My access to that record. I can no longer audit or edit that information. Even though I made a constant effort to preserve my privacy, I am left with a worrying lack of certainty. After all, I can't be expected to remember many months worth of communication, or what out of that I may find concerning in this new context.
2. My relationship with my (ex) employer. Sure I could have assumed an eventual change in that relationship from the beginning, but it's still drastic to have that change come suddenly and without warning.
I realize those are subtle, and that - hopefully - they do not become an issue. I only want to highlight my experience, because I found it eye opening.
The real issue is that there is an informal expectation of privacy without the user having permanent control over his/her information.
