A better analogy is putting your journal in a public library and getting mad when someone reads it.
Good analogy indeed. I’d go one step further and add: it’s like promising others you’ll keep their diary safe, then putting it in a public library, to then get mad when someone reads it.

Yeah the internet by design is a public space, and we must be responsible and treat it as such when handling sensative data.
Again, it was very wrong for people to take that data and especially to post like that.
The company also has to do their part and produce at least some kind of barrier to the data.
Even using UUIDs and making sure the data wasn’t query-able would have been something.
The web is a public space by design. The internet? I don’t think you can make that case well. Https and all that. Private infra abounds.
