The U.S. Supreme Court refused to grant review of CAREFIRST, INC., ET AL. V. ATTIAS, CHANTAL, ET AL which concerns:
- whether to bring a data security lawsuit, is actual harm or the possibility of harm required?
- the U.S. Supreme Court refusal left in place a standard set by the U.S. Court of Appeals in the District of Columbiath that the possibility of harm is enough
- the burning question- is it up to the courts to hold entities responsible for safe keeping data?
