Did the EU fine Microsoft under the GDPR and Shaggar swore a blood oath to Post Badly On The Internet or is it more general chauvinism? I work for a Nordic company and they are definitely very concerned about GDPR compliance, in addition to the fairly strict national laws. They take that poo poo seriously and we have minimal exposure to user data.

The German issue is because the privacy-violating company is a friend of the outgoing CDU government.

governors don't charge people with crimes, anything from the AG office?quote:[A] state cybersecurity specialist informed Sandra Karsten, the director of the Department of Public Safety, that an FBI agent said the incident "is not an actual network intrusion. assuming the director of public safety is in charge of the state police that means nothing is going to happen hobbesmaster fucked around with this message at 05:05 on Dec 31, 2021 |

a sufficiently angry and unscrupulous governor can definitely take it to trial but it should be possible to mount a very strong defense with expert witnesses here

the missouri AG isn't the one who would bring the charge, thankfully, because that guy would not hesitate to try to throw the book at them. he's already convinced a judge to invalidate every health department's authority to do their job and do any kind of pandemic control it was referred to the prosecutor in the county that's home to the state capital, who while is a republican appears to be way less of a chud than most boingboing is quoting the governor's opinion on the likelihood of charges, and let's not forget he's a loving idiot and as far from being a lawyer as you could possibly get

it really depends on the strength of the governor's political machine, probably any sane prosecutor isn't gonna take a case where it's already been revealed that: a) the FBI said there was no crime b) the education department was originally gonna publicly thank the reporter
