Earlier today this happened: One of my employers strategic partners is a national telecom and cellular provider. You probably have their service. Just happens to not be t-mobile in this case.

Anyway we were working on a project regarding turning down some MPLS circuits at a data center we are exiting and one of the engineers from this telecom asked us to submit further updates and status changes to a personal yahoo email address of his.

I’m still waiting on a response from our account manager if this is standard and expressing concern.

The director of my business unit was apoplectic when I showed him.

This will be an interesting conversation.




This happened to a US Secretary of State...

But seriously, T-Mobile talks about their provider, not about a random employee using an unauthorized one. Even if their statement has little substance, I assume it is not directly untrue. But even that happened before...
