I'm pretty torn.

On the one side, this was a realllly stupid mistake that should have been caught earlier, not by some external party who was kind enough to report it to them. I feel like the stakes should be raised a bit for companies who are keeping my data.

On the other side, fear of lawsuits leads toward less disclosure and meaningless PR announcements.




I'm with you. I will point out that fear of lawsuits also leads to being more careful.
