I find the angle this report is leaning to a bit problematic.

As if the reviewers being exposed to problematic stuff was the main problem, and not the fact that people unknowingly to the user get access to those clearly private prompts in the first place.

Who ever claimed the prompts were private?

You should assume anything you send out on the internet to be public unless it's explicitly a service that offers zero-knowledge encryption. And even then, that only goes as far as you trust the company, which should never be too far.

I don't disagree with your point, though anybody becoming a reviewer should expect to see stuff that makes 4chan look wholesome by comparison.
