The point is that any employee of Google can access such data. And Google holds a lot of data. A real damn lot of data. Moreover, it sounds like it was much more than a lone employee scamming people. It was probably a small organized group.
It means you data, and sometimes your business isn't always safe.
Thus, Google is dangerous. It's not Google's fault. It's just what happens when you get too big or too large.
- Flenser 15y ago* The point is that any employee of Google can access such data.* It sounds like they were just visiting Mocality's website. Anyone could have done that.
- mdwrigh2 15y ago"The point is that any employee of Google can access such data." This is just untrue. Only a handful of people at Google have access to each set of data (e-mail, search, etc.), and their access is heavily monitored and restricted. I assure you not every Google employee has access to the kind of data you're worried about.
