| Oct 23, 2019 at 6:03 | comment | added | IMil | @NathanGoings I once worked in a bank, and got asked to optimize a query. And surprisingly, the first result page contained our own CEO's mortgage information. Now, it was pretty obvious that in this case, joking about how people spend $X.00.000 on a house would be highly inappropriate, and I restrained myself from even memorizing X. | |

Using it for anything else is again a privacy breach. So in fact the information OP provides are making already clear it being a privacy breach, since the use case for the retail site is for sure not: "So developers can make a joke on it to fellow developers using the retail." | |
| Oct 23, 2019 at 1:32 | comment | added | Joe S | Important to note here that the OP has no idea how the information was actually obtained. Other answers assume that this was nefarious and advocate to try to get the other dev disciplined or fired. This is the only valid answer with the information provided. I would even add to this answer that if OP tries to get someone fired over this it may (and in my opinion should) reflect poorly on OP. | |
| Oct 22, 2019 at 21:48 | comment | added | Nathan Goings | This is the answer I would provide so I'll just leave a +1. I've had job duties before where I saw information fellow employees could show up in. I've always considered it insensitive to single someone out, but I've had plenty of coworkers who do single friends out and don't consider it a big deal. | |
