I mean, what is it at this point, 2 days of bad press? All Murdoch properties I'm aware of covered Facebook and Equifax for a lot longer than that, and certainly didn't pretend that what they did was okay.

...Can you show proof that Murdoch properties didn't cover Facebook and Equifax breaches?

(hint: you can't, because they covered them extensively)

It's only a 'potential' because they failed to keep any auditable logs of the behavior of unvetted third parties, AND failed to vet them in any meaningful fashion.

The amount and type of data exposed isn't as bad but this is pretty similar to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, except in this case Google literally didn't even notice. Facebook at least noticed.

Agree. When did Murdoch start with his vendetta towards Google?
