(Pleаse use these fаcts fоr the next 3 questiоns) Pineаpple Cоmpany is a new social media platform that encourages members of the “Pineapple Community” to share their pineapple selfies – literally pictures of themselves holding pineapples – with their friends, followers, and the public at large. Pineapple Company’s website, www.pineappleselfie.com, has the following privacy policy which is available as a hyperlink when new users sign-up. The policy is maintained at pineappleselfie.com/privacy: At Pineapple Company, we value honesty, that’s why we won’t pretend that we value your privacy. Our website, www.pineappleselfie.com, is provided to you free of charge, which means you are the product. Accordingly, Pineapple Company will sell your data to literally anyone willing to buy it. This includes, your name, e-mail address, images, status updates, location information, private messages, and deleted data. The only information we keep safe is your password, since we want you to keep posting content for us to sell. If you don’t like the policy, don’t use www.pinappleselfie.com. Zane, an avid lover of all things tropical, was one of the first users of www.pinappleselfie.com. When Zane signed up, he clicked the “privacy policy” link on the sign-up page. The link took him to the page www.pineappleselfie.com/privacy which contained the following text: PLACEHOLDER FOR PRIVACY POLICY – Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Turpis cursus in hac habitasse platea dictumst quisque. Nulla aliquet enim tortor at auctor urna nunc. Pineapple Company updated the above privacy policy to the current privacy policy when the site had 100 users. The site now has 100,000 users. After years of Pineapple consumption, Zane developed a serious Pineapple allergy. His doctor advised him to immediately cease all contact with and consumption of pineapples. In addition to his dietary habits, Zane decided to delete his www.pineappleselfie.com account. To do so, Zane logged in to the account, navigated to “user settings” and clicked “delete account.” The site generated a pop-up stating, “Are you sure you want to proceed? Your data will be deleted forever!” Tearfully, Zane clicked “yes” and, at least as far as he could tell, his data was deleted. Of course, pursuant to their current privacy policy, the Pineapple Company retained all of Zane’s deleted data and continues to sell it to this day. QUESTION: The Pineapple Company suffers a massive data breach and all user accounts, including passwords, are stolen by hackers. Which fact, if true, is Pineapple Company’s best defense to an FTC cybersecurity enforcement action?
