One of my jobs brushes up against gov stuff. Private-possum, not secret-squirrel info. They’re completely explaining it away like “yeah, we see how it feels ooky, but we had someone say it’s all good, so we’re putting all your PII into Azure” and that’s almost the statement. It’s like painting a stick of dynamite green and giving it to kids to play with.
