@GossiTheDog I didn't realize that companies could just.... not comply with GDPR. What lawyer signed off on that strategy??

Jonathan Yu (jawnsy@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 15-May-2024 10:45:52 JST Jonathan Yu @GossiTheDog Yeah, makes sense. I'm still kinda miffed about the vague "one of a kind issue" and "due to a software bug" language, it's sad that Google is playing it off instead of taking accountability. They've had a number of high profile incidents lately, it seems.
AWS seems more forthcoming in incident postmortems and the like, but maybe that just speaks to their maturity as a cloud vs Azure & Google

Jonathan Yu (jawnsy@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 08-May-2024 13:57:37 JST Jonathan Yu @GossiTheDog I don't see anything in this article or anywhere else about deleting data, only a "misconfiguration," though it does stand to reason that the data was deleted since it has taken so long to restore. Did I miss something?
I guess offsite/cross-cloud backups were a saving grace in this case, though I wonder how many companies have this scenario as part of their disaster recovery planning

As it got harder for users to leave online services, it got easier to abuse users."
