but report him on what, selling files that are already in his server? I am not agreeing with what he did but there is really nothing we can do that effects anyone

That's hardly a fix. Hey we can't stop them from breaching us and collecting your data, so we'll just collect a little less. This is precisely the type of thing I expected. It's a corner cutting measure, and hardly enough time to really reflect on what needs to be done to prevent such an occurrence in the future.
It can also be helpful to log PMs. Even if you dont' make a habit out of snooping through them (which I would recommend you not), it's like probable cause for law enforcement. If someone does something suspicious, you now have probable cause to look through their PMs and see what they're up to.

@327, no, for selling PII to other users without consent, and thereby violating the GDPR. It would be a violation of the CCPA but this isn't a business.
I don't know but I'm pretty positive that what Patric did does in fact violate privacy law, since he did, I believe, have people from the EU connecting to his server and did not protect their PII appropriately. If I'm not mistaken, if a website or service has users from the EU or from California, the administrators of that service must comply with either or both the GDPR and CCPA, even if they aren't hosted in either location. As I mentioned, the CCPA does not apply in this instance, but the GDPR does. That's not from the TOS but just general law. Specifically, this breach may be violations of articles 5, 6, 7, and, possibly, article 8 of the GDPR if minors are involved.

I can confirm that there are indeed people from California and the EU, france, Germany, the Netherlands, etc who were involved in the leak.

then the guy is pretty much screwed if someone reports him.
#334 2021-05-12 10:38:16
What about Patrick himself being a minor? Might that be a problem?
#335 2021-05-12 12:26:15
May I suggest you guys get someone who is better qualified in reporting them if you really get somewhere. I'm sure they receive reports every single week about something or the other, so you need to make this stand out
#336 2021-05-12 14:34:01
If he's a minor, it should fall on the parents.

All of this for 100 dollares, sigh lol.
