Google Voice Mails Found In Public Search Engine

Posted by timothy on from the wouldn't-mind-being-able-to-put-some-there dept.

bonch writes "Google Voice Mails have been discovered in Google's search engine, providing audio files, names, and phone number as if you were logged in and checking your own voice mail. Some appear to be test messages, while others are clearly not. Google has since disabled indexing of voice mails outside your own website."

    Is this a violation of privacy via Google Voice? We already know Google allows us to search our GMail email files, what if they too get made public? Google Voice Mail files should only be readable/audio to the person it is assigned to and not made public for everyone to listen in to.

    The text to speech of Google Voice is clearly vary good. Almost as good as the Vonage text to speech in voicemail.

    But I don't want to use Google Voice Mail if Voice Mail is made public. This is a security problem for Google who should have known better. Voice Mail should be private unless the owner wants it published like for example in a law suit or something where it is used as evidence.
