Having either CEO held personally responsible for a privacy leak opens up huge complications for future judgementsif it’s a “company-made” decision.
With that said, I am weary of the ongoing safety CEO’s, political leaders and others “favored,” that fail legally, or with other “commitments,” and experience absolutely no consequences.
The consequences need to have a real bite and not be just a bruise.
I loved reading Howley’s “Especially because of Google’s poor record on privacy, I fear that your project.”. This is a pretty powerful bruise, but it’s not enough. Google has moved on “just fine” with past bruises of this kind. It needs to have real teeth and maybe leave a scar.
