FB seals off some internal message boards to prevent leaking, immediately leaked

Honestly this doesn't happen if you have a good corporate culture to begin with (which Google has not had for quite a while).

I always go back to my experience at HP when Bill and Dave were still alive: the leadership decision to trust employees was pretty much reciprocated so openness worked just fine.

So lack of leadership skill (especially an inability to "lead by example") is usually what causes this type of situation.

This is folly because it only takes ONE person to leak documents, and there are always disgruntled employees somewhere in a company at the scale we are talking about.

You cannot assume good behavior of literally tens of thousands of employees because you have an overall "good" company culture.

That's just impossible.
