Hi,
I've created a general new user in OSX for my laptop that all workers in my company can use. To do this, I've signed in to my Apple ID in the creation process and once the user is ready, I've signed out from my Apple ID account. This is to keep my emails, calender, notifications etc. out of reach in this general user id, that anyone can use.
Here is the issue, that to me sound like a major security issue: for some reason, I'm not signed out from the messages or facetime. My messages on my apple id keep coming to this general user account and are readable to it. The same applies to at least my Facetime user. Anyone using this newly created general user accoung, can access my Facetime. All this came as a surprise and cause us a major security issue in our company. This hasn't happened before in the earlier versions of OSX.
So here are the steps:
7. You have to separately sign out from messages.app and FaceTime (and maybe from some other apps as well? --> If you know which ones, please let me know.)
I would say this is a huge security and privacy issue.

So here are the steps:
Create a new user to OSX
Sign in to you Apple ID in the process
Once you've completed the creation of new user, sign out from your Apple ID in the system preferences
Surprise: you are still signed at least into your messages.app and FaceTime.
Anyone using the new user created can access the information
You have no idea about this, since you thought signing out of Apple ID should be enough.
7. You have to separately sign out from messages.app and FaceTime (and maybe from some other apps as well? --> If you know which ones, please let me know.)
I would say this is a huge security and privacy issue.
