However, one thing that is concerning for me is this:
> The employee used his access at Vercel to find his personal email, location, and the list of his projects.
(from https://twitter.com/nico_jeannen/status/1713139186474406206)
I'm unsure if this tweet is 100% truth, and I certainly don't believe it's "normal" as the tweet implies at the end - but it would be nice to get some sort of feedback on this, ideally. (e.g. "the employee was let go" + "we've reiterated internally that this is absolutely not something anyone at Vercel should do").
Last piece of thought - maybe the ToS need some clarifications to see if you could make it less permissive w.r.t. data and content? I understand you need to distribute it etc but would it be an option to e.g. rephrase "you hereby grant right to distribute data and content [...] only to provide you the customer with Service".
Note that I'm typing all this in good faith and I appreciate the work you folks do at Vercel.
Also a fan of Vercel and I'm very appreciative of the work they contribute to the React/JS ecosystem. Errors in human judgement happen and while they may have taken the appropriate action against the employee, I don't feel like they've reassured me enough that there are processes in place to prevent this happening in the future.
Vercel: We’re changing our pricing. Our community has told us we’re expensive. Also Vercel: Your bill is going up.
They’re giving us a 3 month grace period, but unfortunately don’t offer a breakdown of what is causing the increase.
