That metadata was can be terrible for many people like politicians, those having affairs, drug dealers or buyers, those with sensitive healthcare providers, and so on.
- mass_and_energy 2y agoThis. If you're in an abusive relationship and your abuser sees that you're calling a lawyer, a helpline, a family member etc, bad things can happen quite quickly. This information is non-public for a reason, and you don't have to be a drug dealer to be protected by it either.
- SoftTalker 2y agoYeah it's not good. But would be worse if the actual contents of the messages had been leaked. That said the few abusive people I know are not smart enough to find data dumps of AT&T call records on the dark web. Nor could they pay for them. Nor could they likely make sense of them. But I'm sure some could.
