Resident Evil, Street Fighter, and Monster Hunter publishers Capcom have revealed that a data breach has seen a third-party gain access to information associated with more than 11 million Capcom ID accounts. “Suspicious activity” around the service, required to play online in the likes of Street Fighter 6, was initially noticed on October 19th according to Capcom, who have spent the past couple of days taking measures to contain and combat the problem.
When are real consequences going to fall on their heads? Anyone holding PII should be legally responsible for said data and face stiff fines paid to the people impacted. They should also be held accountable for any and all costs associated with any data breach
When folks directly hold suits accountable?
Instead of holding anyone accountable, what I think we should do is create some more laws that force us to give them copies of our driver’s licenses, birth cerificates, and social security numbers.
Instead of direct action
I like your snark
