You use so many personal accounts for work that it's unfathomable for me. If some hacker manages to hack into your account and find so much valuable information about your work, your work is going to be mightily pissed about it. Imagine you are working on an upcoming product launch and the attacker used your personal account to leak the launch. Or imagine they just decided to leak your company's internal source code. Or imagine they simply use the technical information in your personal attacks to steal user data (even Cloudflare says they worry about this: "Our aim was to prevent the attacker from using the technical information about the operations of our network as a way to get back in").
You are making your work take on an extraordinary risk in hiring you.
- BytesAndGears 3y agoIt’s a fair concern, but there really isn’t so much there. If they compromise my trello account then they know I have some meetings coming up with people, and that I’m starting on ticket 927109 and planning to deploy ticket 901223 on Tuesday. Just referencing items in our ticket management system with very sparse details. My notes are text files on the computer, so we’d have problems regardless if they got that. But maybe I should’ve left it out of the list above in that case… nothing else seems very damning. But you do raise a valid concern, and it’s worth reevaluating!
