    If only our government was brave enough to make an example of them…but no, there will probably be a settlement that results in every victim getting 92 cents, and no further repercussions for either cooperation.

        Issue here is the chains get tighter every time people try to “fight back”. Maybe parallel societies are the right path.

      Found an article.

      https://www.hipaajournal.com/kroger-class-action-pharmacy-patient-data-disclosures/#:~:text=The supermarket chain%2C Kroger%2C is,parties such as Meta Platforms.

      Having read it, this smells more like a legal firm that makes money from suing a shit ton of companies and occasionally being right ratherthan any real evidence of the patient data disclosure.

    Didn’t Costco’s pharmacy get in trouble for this exact thing a couple months ago? I have a feeling we’re going to see a story about this for all the major pharmacy chains.
