minus-squareLoafyLemonlinkfedilink8•2 years agoIsn’t it illegal to not disclose about a potential data breach?
minus-square@DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.comlinkfedilink6•2 years agoI’m no expert but, in my brief searching shows that in California where Roblox is incorporated, it seems they are required to notify any California residents if their data was breached, and the state Attorney General if it was 500+ residents. Searching the AG’s website turns up nothing for Roblox. I guess it’s entirely possible no CA residents were involved but, given the conference was held in San Francisco, I find that very implausible.
minus-squareSokathHisEyesOpenlinkfedilink1•2 years agoWhy on earth would there be a minimum person count? So it’s totally cool to not let 499 people know that their data was stolen? California, man!
minus-square@DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.comlinkfedilink2•2 years agoNo - they have to let any CA resident know, but ALSO the AG if it’s 500 or more.

Thanks for clarifying.
