The article seems a little light on any single fact but does anyone know if there's any actual data that shows personal disability information being recorded/collected? Is the tracking code being served both on the public side and in the logged in portion of the portal? Absolutely no meaningful information was provided.
I know we can sue a sandwich, is this one of these lawsuits? "I found Google tracking code on the DMV site so it's time to earn my retirement" sort of thing?
That's basically the crux of the case right? The law is pretty clear, Google can't collect that data (or at least, if they do, then they'd have to comply with a long list of privacy regulations that I'm pretty sure they don't comply with).
