#2I did not know that Drizly was an Uber subsidiary. I wonder how much of the "disregard for authority" DNA of Uber got on them?

#4> Drizly and Rellas were alerted to security problems two years prior to the breach yet failed to take steps to protect consumers’ data from hackers.
That seems less than ideal.

Based on this it seems the leaves don’t fall to far from the tree

Drizly was a separate startup that was bought by Uber in 2021

#7I am genuinely curious: why did the FTC take this enforcement action?
There is no fine, no prosecution, no consequences of any sort. Essentially, they're just asking the executive to "implement an information security program" at any companies they head.
This seems to send the message that there are absolutely no consequences for getting caught hiding an extremely negligent data breach. Was that the FTC's intent?

Since last year's AMG case in the Supreme Court, the FTC is not authorized to seek monetary relief in these cases.
The FTC can seek monetary relief if this order is violated.

FTC isn't the DOJ. They can't prosecute anything.
