By Neil Hodge2020-12-15T20:19:00+00:00 Following a nearly two-year investigation and decision-making process, the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) on Tuesday fined Twitter €450,000 (U.S. $547,000) for breaching Europe’s strict privacy rules for failing to report a data breach within the required 72 hours and document it properly. The Irish DPC said the fine under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is an “effective, proportionate and dissuasive measure.” Others are underwhelmed, as the penalty is equivalent to the social media firm’s earnings made in 90 minutes. The Irish DPC began its investigation in January 2019 after Twitter self-reported a data breach linked to its Android app late due to “an unanticipated consequence of staffing between Christmas Day 2018 and New Years’ Day.” The breach affected at least 89,000 people.
