"The leavers classifier detects messages that explicitly express intent to leave the organization, which is an early signal that may put the organization at risk of malicious or inadvertent data exfiltration upon departure".
In other words "how to promote and encourage paranoid behaviors from employers" :(
- indrora 4y agoHave you seen high schools in the US? Once I discovered that every school-issued machine had a VNC server running on it I assumed that the contents of my screen were being recorded at every moment. Turns out I was half right, as I caught up with the IT guy afterwards and the principal (a paranoid sociopath who shouldn't be anywhere near kids) wanted the ability to catch kids when she thought they were looking at non-school related things. It's fundamental safety in a society with these sorts of companies to assume: company infra = logged until you die. Once your company has come under a subpoena for information or under some kind of long term discovery, you write emails under the assumption they're going to be in court for everyone and your mother to see.

- regularfry 4y agoIt's extremely revealing that this particular classifier is framed as "prevent data loss" not "intercept skills loss" or "figure out why your employees want to leave and then fix that".
