please do not ever show sensitive information as part of logins

I frequently use azure pipelines while streaming to hundreds of viewers on twitch

and now they have my phone number because you showed it in plain text without warning

I am very unhappy about this

 

I tried to go through azure support here: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/please-do-not-ever-show-sensitive-information-as-p/1437262

 

and they told me to talk to technical support, so I went through technical support and they told me to post here.

    Hello

    I am not an expert on this topic, but since you confirm that you are streaming it you have been treated as a content provider and contact details can be shared!

    Please explain your inquiry in more detail!

      no the fact that I stream content is unrelated -- it's just more unfortunate because I was streaming

      it is a security issue to show sensitive information on screen unprompted -- most services obfuscate this information such as ***-***-**00 or such. imagine a scenario where a creepy dude is looking over ones shoulder at the library or something

        Hello

        I understand your concerns!

        There are 121 Community Groups in the MTC and if you use Azur there should be an inquiry!

        perhaps even in one More Group Security Compliance and Identity!

        Start a discussion there because in this Group we are talking about the principles of MTC space!

        I'll add links:
