In my younger or customer-service days, I once had an awkward conversation with my manager after a message I'd intended for one person ended up going to everyone in a very prominent credit card issuer with about ten thousand on staff at the time. The only reason I can imagine for why I wasn't fired was because they didn't really want anyone else getting ideas about what to do with the effectively unsecured Windows 2000 machines on their desks, and giving me a reason to keep shtum about it was considered preferable to not giving me one.
