It's not clear to me from this article whether ignoring a demand from Kenya's ODPC was a crime. The article says nothing about it. Is it? It's conceivable that it's the equivalent of a cease and desist letter, if the ODPC has no specific authority. That would explain why a company with a lot of lawyers would just ignore it, and why it was escalated to another group as a response.
