Its not just that, though.

Say a company DOES do right, even through hardship. Like.... #RadioShack .

They collected untold amount of #PII from people with "name address phone#" even for simple battery purchases. Did they do anything with it? Only internally.

Well, that is until #bankruptcy court. Radio Shack defended keeping the PII private because thats how it was given to them, in trust.

The bankruptcy court INSTEAD said that PII was worth X million, and was to be sold. End of discussion.

If a court refuses to acknowledge privacy rights, and informed consent, and instead goes "well fuck that its works loads of money", well, yeahh. The whole enchilada is untrustworthy.
