How much GDPR fine will they pay? Oh wait it's gov so nothing / does no matter even if. Who will take responsibility and get fired and lose all pension etc.? Oh wait no one. Well the citizens need to suck it up.
The source code is the least of it! From the article: > citizen PII databases and electronic signing documents were also collected but are being sold separately
This keeps happening in Europe with these mega-IT suppliers repeatedly getting exposed using very bad development practices. Sweden most recently had a major breach back in 2024 when the other large IT services supplier TietoEvry had their data centres breached and claimed "not actually an issue of security". Several government organisations / regional authorities and companies were down. Last I heard several medical…
