Leaving aside the emissions (bad enough), the following bears re-reading

‘However, EA documents show this new process “periodically paused”, with benzene consequently emitted directly to the air. The documents also show the EA was aware of this problem in 2023, but did not investigate until this year.’

#Criminalnegligence anyone? Should the EA and Huntsman both be in the dock?

This won't be the end of this controversy, but a California court did not dismiss claims against Bain Capital over the PowerSchool data breach. In considering the timeline and the private equity firm's actions before and after its acquisition of PowerSchool in 2024, the court noted, in part:

"Post-closing, Bain directed PowerSchool to offshore cybersecurity, engineering, and IT functions to contractors, including offshoring required data-management tools that enabled vendors to bypass consent protocols and access protected school district computers directly.

Bain failed to assess data-breach risks from the offshoring it directed.

Post-closing, Bain directed layoffs of at least 5% of PowerSchool’s workforce, including critical domestic IT staff."

Using AI in a legal context is perfectly defensible. Not following up and not performing due diligence is lazy and derelict. This extends to any serious endeavour.

Unbelievable. Or maybe too believable...

I previously posted about Bolton Walk-in Clinic in Ontario not locking down their patient data despite multiple responsible disclosure alerts (https://infosec.exchange/@PogoWasRight/113589181607493357). Then I reported that Canada's cybersecurity agency contacted me and offered to help (https://infosec.exchange/@PogoWasRight/113589757905504474).

Well, they tried... but got no results either. Bolton Walk-In Clinic is still exposing patient data and didn't even do anything when contacted by Canadian federal police.

If any Canadian news outlet would like to report on this, get in touch. @JayeLTee and I will share the information with you (yes, I just volunteered him too). 😂

Or if anyone is in the vicinity of their clinic, maybe stand outside with a sign that says, "Bolton Walk-In Clinic is leaking patient data and ignoring alerts!" That might get some attention...

Bonus points if you get someone in a Santa outfit to stand outside their clinic with a sign that says "Bolton Walk-In Clinic is naughty -- they are leaking patient data."
