Does that SEC possibility apply to Google Finance stock data? It's not like they're a proper broker or official provider if data (i.e. most of the affected financial sites have ample "price inaccuacy" disclosures).
- jlarocco 9y agoI don't think the OP was trying to say it applies here, just that IF there had been some kind of hack or security problem, then the SEC has some tools for dealing with it. In this case, if it was only the data going to out to third party stock tickers, then it probably doesn't apply. Services like Google and Yahoo finance make it really clear on their sites that the data isn't necessarily accurate, can be delayed, and isn't for trading purposes, so nobody should have been making trading decisions based solely on this data anyway.
