MetaCity CEO Orion Vex Delivered a 47-Minute All-Hands That Was Accidentally Streamed to All 41 Million Users and Contained 14 Slides Labeled 'DO NOT SHARE EXTERNALLY'

At 2:00 PM EST, MetaCity CEO Orion Vex began a quarterly all-hands meeting for company employees, delivered via the internal MetaCity broadcast system. The meeting was configured by an events coordinator who, according to an internal incident report published two hours later to the wrong Confluence page, 'selected the wrong audience profile from a dropdown.' The audience profile selected was 'All Active Users.' For 47 minutes and 22 seconds, all 41 million MetaCity accounts with active sessions received a full-screen broadcast of the all-hands, which included: a review of Q1 platform metrics, a slide deck with 14 slides bearing the header 'DO NOT SHARE EXTERNALLY — BOARD USE ONLY,' an unscripted 9-minute segment in which Vex discussed, in specific terms, MetaCity's internal reaction to last month's gravity glitch, a live Q&A in which three employees asked questions Vex visibly did not want to answer in front of 41 million people, and a closing slide that read 'REMEMBER: This meeting is strictly confidential.' The broadcast was terminated at 2:47 PM when Vex's chief of staff entered the frame and unplugged something. MetaCity has issued a statement describing the incident as 'an internal communications error.' The 14 slides labeled DO NOT SHARE EXTERNALLY have been shared extensively.

Sources inside the platform have confirmed that what began as a minor technical anomaly rapidly spiraled into one of the most-discussed incidents in metaverse entertainment this year.
