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

Can we get a link for something to the article?

Found an article.

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.
