Over 181,000 AI meeting recordings left wide open in note taking app
A security researcher discovered that the AI meeting platform tl;dv left its database exposed, allowing unauthorized access to millions of sensitive meeting recordings. The vulnerability allowed users to join live meetings uninvited and access private data, with the company failing to address the issue for six months.
Why it matters
This highlights critical security failures in AI-integrated enterprise tools that handle sensitive corporate and government communications.
I reported this on January 28th, 2026. It is now July 2026. Six months later. The Firestore database is still wide open. The CTO never responded. I guess my emails were too long and they didn't view them.
tl;dv (Too Long; Didn't View) is an AI meeting recording platform. It drops a bot into your Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams call, records everything, transcribes it, and generates summaries with AI. Over 2 million users. Backed by investors. Endorsed by half of LinkedIn's sales influencer community.
They store your sales calls, job interviews, performance reviews, internal strategy sessions. The kind of content where someone says "this call is being recorded" and everyone nervously laughs and then shares trade secrets for 45 minutes.
