Flight attendants have expressed significant concern following reports that bankrupt Spirit Airlines sold a substantial amount of employee data to Google. This transaction, occurring after Spirit's operational cessation, has raised alarms among airline staff regarding the privacy and potential misuse of their personal information.
The sale of this data is seen by many as a betrayal of trust by Spirit's management, particularly as the airline faces bankruptcy proceedings. The acquisition by Google, a tech giant with vast data processing capabilities, further amplifies anxieties about how this sensitive information will be utilized and protected.
