Yeah yeah, they sold pregnancy data to Texas who arrested women and killed others, blah blah so what just fine them 10 billion or 300 dollars or whatever the fuck THEY DON'T CARE. They'll make it back by the time they do it again fifteen minutes later.
They laugh at courts. And well they should, our "justice" system is a goddamned joke.
I have questions...
What was Meta's defense for a social media site to need sensitive sexual and reproductive health data?
And if Flo was UK based, surely that data should have been covered by GDPR. How was Meta a partner with legitimate interest to PII data?
Meta's done worse: https://www.hipaajournal.com/meta-facing-scrutiny-over-use-of-meta-pixel-tracking-code-on-hospital-websites/
Criminal and civil judgements are dwarfed by the huge profits generated by the violation of privacy laws. Shareholders and C-Suites don't care where the money is coming from as long as it keeps coming.
The child rapist trump will make the case go away and give them a medal is what will really happen.
And Maga will cheer for a 3rd term.
Who will actually wake up, though?
Now, instead of a fine, someBODY needs to get jail-time. Time to cut out the fine-repeat, fine-repeat cycle. To hell with 'corporate responsibility', hang the punishment on real heads.
SomeBODY KNEW what they were getting out of it. SomeBODY needs to pay.
Water is wet
Meta and meta mess again
