In the world exclusive broken here (it had a flashing light and everything) on the Ypsi City Desk this week, where the University of Michigan's AOSS Department suffered a massive data breach and did NOTHING for the victims of THEIR sloppy and unprofessional mistake. Told the vics to suck an egg.
Pfizer recently admitted a data breach by a former employee. In the first news story about this, here's Pfizer's take on corporate responsibility when it comes to personal data:
"Pfizer has contracted with Identity Safeguards (IDS), a credit monitoring and protection company, to assist affected individuals. The company is providing two years of credit protection support services, including For information on credit monitoring, call Identity Safeguards at ____________"
Wow, did you see that Tamas Gombosi, head cheese at Atmospheric, Oceanographic and Space Sciences? See how that's handled by RESPONSIBLE people?

I guess the Ann Arbor Snooze and the Michigan Daily both thought that U of M took enough hits on Saturday.
I mean really, reporting on them getting their asses handed to them by App State and divulging that they just comprised the personal information of their employees and will do absolutely nothing about it is really just piling it on.
It's pretty pathetic. I mean we're talking THOUSANDS of records here, not 10, not 50.
Somebody commented before, The Ann Arbor News doesn't want to bite the hand that feeds it.
The Daily might just be incompetent. I mean somebody there mentioned something kinda throwing bloggers under the bus journalism-wise recently.
Oh kids...
