Maybe the article has missed detail but it seems to imply that 7-Eleven was only asked to stop and to destroy the inappropriately collected data and was not given a fine nor any other punishment. Is that correct?
- encryptluks2 5y agoIsn't that the benefit of being a large company. You do something bad, you get a slap on the wrist and they politely ask you to stop. You do it again, same slap.. and they say pretty please. Eventually, you just realize that as long as you keep paying the politicians you can do pretty much whatever you want with little to no consequence?
- leppr 5y agoDepends on the country. For instance in Europe, GDPR enforcement is way more lenient towards small companies, to the point where it makes no strategic sense for a startup to invest anything but the bare minimum required to feign "good intentions". Striving for actual compliance with the letter of the law is something only huge companies do.
