I'm curious on others insight about one section of the email management sent to employees regarding leaks:
"Please remember: whether malicious or unintentional, leaks damage our culture. Be aware of the company information you share and with whom you share it. If you’re considering sharing confidential information to a reporter—or to anyone externally—for the love of all that’s Googley, please reconsider! Not only could it cost you your job, but it also betrays the values that makes us a community."
I certainly understand the potential business impact leaking information, but what is the aspect of the Google culture a leaked email harms?
