the german supreme court just recently decided that the involuntary publication of personal data like your phone number through a break-in already constitutes damage that the companies who experienced the break-in are responsible for. there is no need for certified engineers, just make the companies pay for being negligent. putting this on certified engineers only shifts the blame, but in the wrong direction in my opinion, because these problems happen not because the engineers are not certified, but because the company tried to save money by cutting corners.
