What did they leak? How did the author and The Verge decide this article was ready for publication?
Literally nothing in the article except what appears to be sane company policy. Of course you fire people who leak confidential company information.
Lemmy: "But it must be evil if they're hiding it!"
Well, in FB's case, it may well be, but you can't run a mom-and-pop store with every communication open to the world.
FFS people, it's no different than "don't talk to cops", no different. Anything you say can and will be held against you. Stunning lack of insight from such a privacy advocating community. Same people who rail against others saying, "If you have nothing to hide..."
Did they pee themselves?
