They admit to using 2FA phone numbers for advertising purposes.
How is this not wrong doing?
That they believe it was a mistake doesn’t make it right doing.
- wpietri 7y agoExactly. "Whoops, we did a thing that accidentally made us money," is not the most confidence-inspiring excuse. One, that's a very convenient accident. And two, if procedures around private data are so sloppy that one small accident can do this, that strikes me as the kind of negligence that a regulator should punish vigorously.
- verst 7y agoYes that is wrong-doing but I have not seen any evidence during my time there that such a move would have been intentional. I'm very inclined to believe it was an unfortunate mistake. A mistake that probably should not have been possible. I'm not sure why or how it was.
- TheSpiceIsLife 7y agoIntention or not it is still wrong. Intention should have an impact on punishment / reparation outcomes, but it shouldn’t necessarily impact guilt.
- ABeeSea 7y agoIntention doesn’t matter.
