I really don't think it's possible to assign a value to the data in way that's going to be fair or non-idiotic.

Esp. without more detailed info about how it was leaked. I'd still think the provider was at fault. I mean imagine going into a database you go many times a day, and all the sudden your permissions are altered through no action on your part.

It would be kinda like searching your office server - that everybody has permissions for - for a graphic file you need to write a manual for in-house software, and you get all these nudie pics, and you realize you've inadvertently discovered your co-worker's porn stash on the company server, of all places. Are you now guilty of using the company computer for viewing porn? What if, even worse, you download a couple of them to a flash drive and keep your mouth shut about your dumb co-worker in order to not get him fired, but then you are accused of viewing porn on a company computer, and he isn't?

Just hypothetically speaking.

Yeah but he didn't steal the infrastructure and dbas, he peeked and probably exported some volunteer gathered data which in the end was probably mostly redundant with his own.

You are very wrong if you think the Sanders campaign already had the Clinton campaign's ranking of likely Clinton voters. When they stole that data it was the single most valuable dataset they can steal because they could use it to vastly improve their field and targeting operations.

As much as you might feel that's legal, it is in fact potentially a felony to access a computer system or dataset exposed by a bug. It is often a felony when you use said bug to access data that could provide you value.

Please notice the following things you have done.

1. You have changed legitimate files to porn. Thus automatically shifting guilt to the Clinton campaign.

2. You then use this to treat stealing them as harmless since they weren't legitimate files anyway.

3. Then you act like not reporting this was somehow a favor to the Clinton campaign.

They ACA is head and shoulders better than the Heritage proposal. There weren't votes for a public option. This has been discussed at length in the past. Best move on before Willa hears the siren call of Healthcare policy chat.

I never said the data he stole was, but the value of the database as a whole is what dictates the security applied. A better analogy might be someone at a high stakes table at a casino reaching over and taking their neighbor's chips when a drink is spilled and not expecting security to see it when they replay the tapes. There's simply no way that a person reasonably competent in IT would not have known that a security bug in a new patch was certainly going to trigger a log check to see if anyone took advantage of it.

The PC Police at Oberlin College are mad about food.

quote:

Some Oberlin College students have taken issue with the campus dining services at the college, saying dining services is improperly preparing dishes and labeling them as Asian.
Clover Linh Tran, a student at Oberlin and co-chair of the Vietnamese Student Association, called for a meeting with campus dining after noticing inaccuracies in several Asian dishes that confused students.

For example, a Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwich was being served, but used the wrong bread and had coleslaw on it rather than pickled vegetables. Another dish was called “tandoori,” an Indian dish usually served for the Hindu holiday of Diwali. However, the dish had beef in it, which many Hindus do not eat.
The sushi served on campus was also a concern, one that some students even considered to be disrespectful.

Tran said Vietnamese pho, a type of soup, is one of the most important dishes in Vietnamese culture. The on-campus version, however, was made with mostly incorrect ingredients.

What's the New York Post headline about this?

Students at Lena Dunham’s college offended by lack of fried chicken.

The National Review, meanwhile, is very concerned about the college Black Student Union's anti-white racism and demands to be paid for doing nothing.

The students, it seems, complained to the school that a lot of their 'ethnic' dishes were wrong and in some cases straight up weirdly not a thing at all and, ya know, as people from those ethnic groups, they'd like if the school is going to do their food for them to do it at least trying to be right.
