Helsinki District Court handed Vastaamo's former CEO Ville Tapio a three-month suspended prison sentence in April last year on a data protection charge because he did not fulfil General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements. This verdict was appealed by both Tapio and the prosecutor, and the appeal hearing will begin in May 2025.
Apparently iirc the company had no security at all. Kivimäki didn't 'hack'; the username & password was some default setup. Not to take away from his assholery, but the responsibility for this horrific case doesn't seem to apply in a justified manner.
Ville Tapio, the former CEO of Vastaamo, was fired and also prosecuted following the breach. Ransom_man bragged about Vastaamo’s sloppy security, noting the company had used the laughably weak username and password “root/root” to protect sensitive patient records.
Investigators later found Vastaamo had originally been hacked in 2018 and again in 2019. In April 2023, a Finnish court handed down a three-month sentence for Tapio, but that sentence was suspended because he had no previous criminal record.
Tapio should get a prison sentence as well instead of a few months of house arrest / electronic surveillance. Absolutely criminally complicit
Ideally yes, education would be enough, but as these systems lack national and EU level safeties, education is being dismantled and information warfare has a greater efficiency. There's no time to rely that people will self correct just by improving their knowledge, people generally don't have a motive for being informed when they're trying to survive.
Antidemocratic bad actors can't take part in a democracy (if the current system could be even called that with its flaws). It's not about banning parties (or opinions as they like to frame it). There's an apparent lack of safety mechanisms to prevent abuse
Capitalism didn't work and we never got democracy. But the same applies to the fascism with communist branding prevalent in Asia. A new plan is definitely needed and actual communism should have aspects on the table.
Huh. This is their newest discord announcement, just two hours after that IGN article has been updated
Thanks for letting us know that some PS Plus subscribers have been unable to access the free next gen update of Fallout 4 on PlayStation. This issue has now been successfully resolved. Subscribers who have previously received Fallout 4 from the PlayStation Plus Collection should now be able to access the update as intended.
I still see it with a price. Some users have reported that it's fixed??
Edit: there's a new menu to add the PS5 version to your library, currently only visible on the console. The PS app and web store don't have it
It's pretty clear that as these and the rest of the companies decide what products and services are available, their marketing ploy to shift responsibility to consumer choice doesn't hold water
Yes, exactly. We'll never see an official order from Putin to off Navalny or a similar one from anyone who was in on the Epstein collusion so a claim like "Trump, Clintons and the British royals didn't kill Epstein" can be always made
Apparently this semi-ex-copper carried the weapon during a parliament work day and to a karaoke bar to get shit-faced with. Carrying firearms is not at all common in the cities, outside of hunting in the countryside. A gossip rag was first to publish the information, which is also peculiar, as usually the police inform about gun violence very fast.
Maybe China should aid Ukraine. And Palestine and Global South countries being invaded. They could free Tibet, and not attack Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam etc while they're at it.
This has been going on everywhere blatantly and there's never repercussions. It's not a surprise that a vote for the far right is a vote for China+Russia
I thought it was a rhetorical question
