- internetter 2y agoWhat is ironic about this?
- observationist 2y agoVerizon having to publicly disclose that they screwed up protecting the data they collect, and then, like a desperate addict, asking for more data? Yeah, no, you're right, not ironic at all.
- Veserv 2y agoIt is a report that Verizon produced about data breaches in industry, not a report about a data breach at Verizon. Please at least click the link before making snarky comments or your snarky comments will be misinformed.
- dylan604 2y agoYou have to admit the title "2024 Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report" is very easily interpreted as a Verizon data breach.
- kulshan 2y agoThat's why reading before commenting is preferred...there's even a synopsis outlying what the report is though at the link and the second page of the report outlines it as well. So even a cursory glance before commenting would have worked here...
- dylan604 2y agoPossibly, but even after knowing what TFA is about, the title still reads the other way. It's an unfortunate thing that the majority of readers of the title will assume it is a breach of Verizon rather than an investigation by Verizon. To not understand this and allow the title to go as is, is just naivete at its finest.
- nyokodo 2y ago> What is ironic about this? It could be considered situational irony for a company reporting on industry data breaches to expect readers to disclose personal information as one would expect them to display sensitivity to unnecessary capture of precisely this kind of data.
