Ha full story.

In 2016 a new social network called mastadon was announced, no data collecting or something, I signed up, poked arround it and mostly forgot about it.

Till 2019 when during a big computer upgrade the awful IT guy told my boss that he saw the mastodon log in info and said it was porno, that I was viewing porno at work. Well I was of course offended and upset that basic due diligence wasn't followed before this accusation, BUT even worse this log in info was handed to me in a packet that contained the full user names and typed out passwords of all my financial information, credit unions, and social media as well as stuff like my propane bill, PGE bill etc. hella whack.
