In reply to the discussion: Snowden: NSA employees routinely pass around intercepted nude photos [View all]PosterChild
(1,307 posts)... back in the early '70's my sister in law worked for a photo processing concern developing film*. The employees regularly made duplicates of the more "interesting" pictures they came across and kept them in a scrap book for easy ogling.
Yep, it happens! Someone in payroll knows how much someone else is making. Someone over at the local hospital is "browsing" through someone's medical records. Someone at the IRS is "browsing" through someone's tax return. Whenever you have a group of employees in charge of an activity that requires a measure of trust and discretion, you have some individuals who violate that trust.
It shouldn't happen. It should be punished. But it does happen and some of them get a way with it. You can't stop cutting checks for empolyees, you can't shut down the hospital, you can't stop collecting taxes because of it.
Meh.
* Nowadays, there might be some who don't know what "film" is or understand what "photo processing" is all about. Wiki it.
