It is illegal for the EMPLOYER to disclose confidential information regarding employees, that would include all current and past board members who were the employer at the time of employment. It is not illegal for others to spread rumors, hearsay or opinions about those matters, because they are not the employer violating employee/employer confidentiality. It may be unethical or immoral, but it is not illegal.
