Why Ex-Spirit Airlines Flight Attendants Aren't Happy About Google's Large Data Purchase

A group of former Spirit Airlines flight attendants are expressing concerns regarding Google’s recent acquisition of workforce management software company, Wisesoft. This purchase includes data collected from thousands of airline employees, including those at Spirit. The ex-flight attendants fear this data may contain sensitive personal details about their past employment and potentially expose them to privacy risks. Specifically, they worry the vast amount of data now under Google’s control could be used in ways not anticipated by the workers who provided it. Legal experts suggest this situation highlights a growing concern over the collection and use of employee information within the aviation industry.
