This week started off with one big news on Google Voice. Apparently people are finding out that random Google Voice voicemails appears in Google search result.

Use Google to query: site:https://www.google.com/voice/fm/*

Previously we noticed that every time we received a new voicemail notice from Google Voice, we could play the message without ever logging in. That was a concern we had.

The phone numbers are also visible in these “public search result” of Google Voice voicemails. Talk about privacy breach. We believe that Google should close this privacy breach by forcing users to log in to retrieve any contents from Google Voice.

Even though “only” a handful voicemails were leaked, the damage is done. Well, then again, Google voice is still in “beta” (*cough*).
