It's weird as fuck how people working in these fields have unrestricted access to peoples private information, be it videos, pictures or worse.
Title is difficult to decipher, here’s what it’s about: > A new report on old privacy incidents [2017] suggests that at least one Nintendo leak came from a Google employee showing off private YouTube videos to a friend.
its from one of the content moderators. they are all hired and managed through recruiting agency. there was over 10k of us while I was there. and most people are just kids with one week of on boarding doing short term contract. whoever did it is blackballed by biggest recruiting agency in the world. way to get your life crazy difficult over reddit points

so youtube content moderators can just view anyone's private videos willy nilly?
HN title needs a grammar cleanup (at time of writing, it's 'Nintendo leak employee accessing private YouTube videos')
I couldn't copy the whole title from original article because of 80 character limitations
The actual article headline really does make reading the article pointless.

Pretty much all these sites can view every bit of content you submit to them for moderation purposes. Many of them state your data can teach learning models.
If you really want it private, you don't want it on the cloud/social media sites.

"Private" doesn't mean what you think it means. Pretty much all these sites can view every bit of content you submit to them for moderation purposes. Many of them state your data can teach learning models. If you really want it private, you don't want it on the cloud/social media sites.

"Google says it was "non-intentional" because they only showed it to a friend", I don't think they purposely leaked it for internet clout

Articles like this and the endless stream of hacks & leaks are important reminders that there is no such thing as computer security. If your data is on a networked computer, you should consider it semi-public.
There absolutely is for anyone who cares to use it. That sort of defeatist mindset is super counterproductive, and ends up putting more people in harm's way.
We're talking about people choosing to upload unencrypted content to a cloud service that is obviously publicly available. The security/privacy properties of this action I think should be obvious even to less technical users.
