2.5M Medical Records Leaked by AI Company
I'm a medical researcher, and I've worked with exactly this sort of data. The number of hoops I had to jump through to even be allowed on the project was insane. Background checks, legal forms of all kinds, trainings on how to keep the data secure. Fingerprint locked rooms. Access control. And most importantly: the data themselves were air-gapped.<p>If I fucked up on this scale, jail would be the least of my worries. I'd never work again. I'd be professionally shunned forever, with no hope of redemption once my name is attached to the incident in some Google search. No more grants, no more collaborations, no nothing. I'd be ruined. Frankly I'd be begging to be let into prison; where else am I gonna be able to eat?<p>Nothing will happen to these people.
