Where are the criminal penalties for reckless security lapses. The hoarding of data should come with legal risk. Penalties shoudl increase for the risk they trafer to the public by abdicating that responsibility, and delaying the public announcement.
- WarOnPrivacy 2y ago> Where are the criminal penalties for reckless security lapses. For criminal fines to send a worthwhile message, they'd need to 1) be of a worthwhile amount and 2) equal a reduction in investor returns + executive payouts. Without that, the people in a position to make changes are soundly insulated from their consequences.
- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoRight now it seems nothing. And if the people responsible for this breach, get away with it then why wouldn’t anyone else? This is about as bad as it gets in terms of the data that was accessed and how many people it affects. Most people who are included in this breach, have never heard of this company and are only now receiving letters in the mail about it. Those letters won’t say what data was taken, and as far as I know United/Change refused to provide this information to individuals. All it does is offer free credit monitoring.
