I've been getting emails about an #FTC #settlement with #BetterHelp:

"The FTC says that BetterHelp promised to keep users’ information private but revealed data to Facebook, Snapchat, Pinterest, and Criteo for advertising purposes. This data included email addresses, IP addresses, and **personal answers to health questions**."

For sharing #PHI, apparently, they're going to send me a check for a few bucks!?! WTF?

That's the only punishment?
