Dear All,
I am sending this email on behalf of a friend who is not subscribed to this
list.
She is making a speech or a presentation and would like anecdotal
information regarding fines, other punishments and problems caused as a
result of non-compliance with data protection or freedom of information
legislation etc around the world as well as the UK.
She has looked on US and UK mailing list archives without a great deal of
success and has pleaded with me to pass on this message to this list-serv.
Any replies will be gratefully received.
Many thanks
Matthew Stephenson
