  Somebody name and photo are personal details. Combined with a public post including accusations means a wide open attack on somebody's character. Don't get me wrong, in no way would I defend that guy or any of his words. That's not the point. My point is that private communications are expected to remain private, even more so in a work dispute. Or so is my belief. Which seems an outdated belief.

    He’s the CEO corresponding over his company email so this is pretty clearly a professional setting rather than a personal one. His name and photo are very publicly associated with the company already. I generally agree with your sentiment at an emotional level, as most of the time I find it to be in poor taste to share private conversations, however there’s not really an expectation of privacy in professional correspondence. For instance your company can freely monitor what you do on your work laptop if so inclined.

  Replying here to your other comment: "however there’s not really an expectation of privacy in professional correspondence" Uhm, yes there is. Internal company email as well as email between companies is expected to stay between the sender and receivers. Almost every corporate email footer mentions this explicitly. I'm quite convinced that neither employers or employees would be cool with their emails being dumped on the internet for all to see. Every time that happens, it creates headlines. Professional correspondence is very much expected to stay confined to its intended scope.

    It's not internal here.
