Unauthorized Email Access

A story of unauthorized access to emails from a previous job is recounted, highlighting a lapse in cybersecurity. The speaker describes gaining admin access to a national IT help desk account, which allowed him to view the emails of employees after leaving the organization. After some time, he and his girlfriend accessed the emails out of curiosity without considering the ethical implications, finding it amusing when they used a simple password to log back in. This incident underscores the risks associated with weak passwords and the temptation to exploit access that shouldn't be taken lightly.
