[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Prosecutors say they obtained a search warrant to legally access the private Twitter and Facebook data of Virgil Griffith

  • Griffith was charged in 2019 after allegedly teaching North Koreans how to use cryptocurrency to evade sanctions

  • Prosecutors said they uploaded Griffith's social media data to Palantir

  • FBI agents investigating other cases had access to the data for more than a year

#3 Glitch = The customers messed around with the settings (Without telling the Supplier) and gave un-authorized access to individuals by mistake.

Customer Malfeasance.

#4 Grinding my teeth here. Worked for a very short time for a consultancy whose owner routinely closed deals with the assertion that the software would work "out of the box" as in no setup, training, maintenance, etc.
