I’m very sorry that happened to you. But honestly, I don’t see that as an issue with privacy. More like gross incompetence at your workplace and you paid the price of it. Hopefully it didn’t affect your day to day too much.

Privacy shouldn’t drastically affect your life to the point where you cannot pursue a career and establish yourself.
