If TikTok is a threat to the American people because it collects data, what is Equifax when it blasts the American people’s data out in a data breach?

Whoopsie-daisy! Somehow, a few terabytes of data on Enron’s corporate malfeasance seemed to slip thru the cracks: https://www.muckrock.com/news/archives/2019/jan/30/doe-enron-data/ Surely, a mistake. #enron #corporatemalfeasance #collusion #whitecollarcrime #corporatecrime #coverups
Terabytes of Enron data have quietly gone missing from the Department of Energy

Government investigations into California’s electricity shortage, ultimately determined to be caused by intentional market manipulations and capped retail electricity prices by the now infamous Enron Corporation, resulted in terabytes of information being collected by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. This included several extremely large databases, some of which had nearly 200 million rows of data, including Enron's bidding and price processes, their trading and risk management systems, emails, audio recordings, and nearly 100,000 additional documents. That information has quietly disappeared, and not even its custodians seem to know why.

What a funny coincidence. Join a union today! #labor #monopoly #monopsony #union #corporatemalfeasance
How Big Firms Keep Wages Low

Noncompetes scare workers into inaction – not looking for a higher wage as well as turning down better job opportunities at competitors and not asking their boss for a counter offer when they are offered a higher wage.

Illinois’ Supreme Court rules that companies have to obtain positive consent before collecting facial scans, iris images, and fingerprints: https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-six-flags-biometrics-lawsuit-20190125-story.html This is a great victory but one that I fear will have to be replicated fifty more times. :/ #privacy #corporatemalfeasance #surveillance #liberty #freedom #harm #sixflags #illinois #law
