boemNew Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC
I’ve seen this movie before. A few years later someone will figure out that this data that was supposed to be “private and encrypted” was being sent out to Microsoft, who will get a slap on the wrist, half assedly apologize and immediately move on to even more anti consumer ways to squeeze more income out of its users for “growth”.
IchNichtenLichtenI’m not saying that won’t happen but if it does Microsoft will be absolutely fucked as they got caught committing several million HIPAA violations, not to mention any exposure to classified material on government computers.
My only thought there is "LOL"
- Export violations (sanctioned countries)
- Illegally collected personal information from children
- Price fixing
- Wage theft
- Discrimination
- Privacy violations
- Mismanaging peoples 401ks
There are long, long, loooooong lists of violations MS has been caught for. The penalty has always been a fine small enough that it’s a cost of doing business.
You should read up on penalties for HIPAA violations, they don’t fuck around.
cm0002You’re right they don’t, but only for covered entities which MS is not in any shape or form
It’s just like when Grindr or whatever leaked people’s STD status, they nor MS are a medical provider or “covered business entity”
HIPAA is an ok privacy law, but it is not the all supreme health privacy law you think it is
