This is scary. I’m trying to understand - I have several Trello accounts, one that I use for my own personal work and some consulting clients, and several other accounts with @client.com emails. Does this mean that if I have my personal account added as a secondary email anywhere on a client owned board, they can take control of my personal account including other clients’ IP? If so that’s terrifying and we need to find alternatives ASAP.

That is precisely what happened to me.

Elsewhere you wrote that the opposite scenario happened to you. You tainted your personal account with a work email. This person is worried about tainting their personal email with a work account.

It's evident from their reply that they do not care about a primary or a secondary email. In my case the company email was secondary, in this case it is primary.
