What did you really expect? Him to buy into your weak hand-waving rationalization for this information exposure? Computer security is about what is possible for malicious actors, contractual "strings attached" and what you're "allowed to use it for" are next to irrelevant. If we could safely assume everyone is acting with the other's best interests in mind and respecting their privacy, computer security wouldn't even be a thing.
I get it that you were on the inside of one of these companies. Its really easy to have your perspective shifted when you live something for so long. It lets you draw conclusions based on your anecdotal experiences there. That's fine and all, but don't attack the guy for pointing out the real issues you've chosen to marginalize.
