The shocking part was less about Maven's methods or lack of ethics, and more along the lines of "How the fuck did they do that?!"

    What @delirious_owl@discuss.online seemed to be implying is that direct messages on Mastodon should be considered "public" rather than "private".

    I'm assuming that's along the same lines of how Lemmy users generally think that their upvotes/downvotes are private when in reality, if you know how to look for them, you can see them.
