IT blunder permanently erases 145,000 users' personal chats in KPMG's Microsoft Teams deployment – memo

Sticky or GUI

Must have tripped the Central Admin switch. Either that or a messed up PowerShell, but I doubt that as Teams has trouble processing batch changes of more than 5,000 records.

Which brings me to the question of why not fully develop the GUI [product] instead of leaving some poor schmucks to try and work out the same PowerShell command in thousands of companies, globally, every single day, and put it on a sticky note. How much lost productivity is that?

What legacy is IBM really shooting for? Cheating its own salespeople out of millions? Here we go again, allegedly

Meet the new Boss, same as the old Boss

I have seen this type of behaviour in all sizes of corporations in the USA for over thirty years. It is a lack of common-sense and leadership. If a salesman/person/droid makes an unexpected, or huge sale, they cap and then in some cases also increase the quota for next fiscal even if said sale only happens because of an equipment renewal which happens every five years.

Sensible leaders would say: "You've made a huge sale, here is a huge check/cheque. Please do it again and I will give you another huge check/cheque." If they did that - who loses?

Passwords Everywhere

The problem with HTTPS Everywhere is the permissions you implicitly grant. "The extension can read the content of any web page you visit as well as data you enter into those web pages, such as USERNAMES and PASSWORDS. "

I wonder if they keep logs.....and how are they secured?
