Excellent!
It won't stop them from continuing to do it until some jobs and careers are lost over it though.

I believe this limited to use of data without a criminal warrant. Still a substantial victory though.

There is another thread in this. As I said there, it’s scary when basic right and wrong fall along partisan lines.
