You are misinformed. There are legal consequences - expecially if the violation/breach is not disclosed - see »www.eplaw.us/data/RisingDuty.pdf

IANAL, but the author is. And he represents me.
Yeah, "LawMage" said as much back on Page 2, citing the Toysmart case. Still, that case rested in part on child protection. I see your link (I only read the Google cached version to avoid possible PDF infection) centers mostly on security breaches rather than violations by the provider itself, but they do get into privacy policy issues about page 24 or so.

It's good to see violators are held accountable in a few circumstances, although it does seem to center more around "false advertising" than any real, accountable set of rules for abiding customer privacy or adhering to a "privacy policy" -- whatever that actually is. In other words, the "privacy policy" isn't necessarily any more meaningful or enforceable than a banner on the web site reading "we have the shiniest equipment". It seems to be treated as merely another form of published ad or promise. So I hope that's enough. Thanks for the link...

"Oh, Sir, Vonage has a new exciting offer for former sunrocket..."

Cut her off.... "I asked, how you got my mailing information, Ma'am, please. I'd also like to know how you knew I specifically was a former Sunrocket Customer."

The key bit here has to be the last four words. If a company can no longer provide you with the service you need and they pass your information on to another company that could provide that service, then is this defined as an "unrelated marketing purpose"? I suspect not. Many people would be happy to hear about alternative service providers, especially those with special offers.
Since whether or not they violated their TOS depends on definitions, you'll need to look at that sentence in context.

Lawmage,
Thanks for posting here. I'd like to ask your opinion on another topic if I may.

Several sunrocket users purchased Linksys adapters which they own. After sunrocket closed, Teleblend modified the password on the adapters.

I'm of the opinion that since Teleblend is not Sunrocket, they didn't have a right to modify the adapters unless they recieved permission from the owners.
I believe it's clearly Computer Tampering. However I'm obviously not a lawyer, so I'm curious what your take will be.

I don't think sherwood can swap the Sunrocket policy out for their own unless you agree to it.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18821824 Mon, 06 Aug 2007 18:02:23 EDT Re: SunRocket Sold Mailing Info!! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18821816 laserjobs :

We never agreed to Sherwood's privacy policy. Is this theft of personal information by Sherwood Partners? Would Sherwood Partners not have to abide by the Privacy Policy the customers agreed to?

I know it was SR that did it because my account had both my name and my wife's name on it and they mispelled her name. Vonage spelled it exactly how SR did! None of the ads usually come with my name and my wife's name both on it. Until now, I have never received an ad from Vonage.
