It's a lot more than just the person in marketing not realizing. You can't expect marketing to understand these things.
It means there's either nobody reviewing the privacy implications of marketing decisions, or that somebody who knows better is reviewing these decisions and decided leaking data like this is acceptable.
Both those possibilities make backblaze a non-starter for me now.
- intricatedetail 6y agoExactly this. If this was possible, nobody said that this is a bad bad idea or did say but got overruled it makes me think this product is no longer safe. I'll give some time for them to publish post mortem and in the meantime will look where to move data.
- iamacyborg 6y agoI categorically disagree with this. > You can't expect marketing to understand these things. I work in marketing ops and I know how difficult it is to get marketing folks to understand or care about how the tracking they use works. There’s a small but growing number of us trying to change behaviour and awareness from the inside out but if marketers fuck up on privacy an example should be made of them.
