he should sue them

How does that even happen

At least he can get his data.

Retarded slav companies like Wargaming won't give you your data unless you give them your phone number and passport.

time for lawsuit. it won't go to court though, big companies would rather settle out of court to avoid bad PR.

uhhhh dude don't you get it, epic store is SUPPOSED to be a dysfunctional mess, they just started it!
after all they're competing with 2004 steam not 2019 steam!

How the fuck does Epic commit one blunder after enough when they're raking in billions of dollars from Fortnite?

When I entered this thread I didn't beelieve I would see this post.
Something is abuzz....

you have to do the same with epic store

Bee puns really sting.

He's lucky they told him that. If Tencent got any power than they already have, they'd never tell a thing like how the chinese government doesn't tell its insectile populace anything.

Is this, dare I say, Epic?

Yea Forums is now, openly, unapologetically, unironically posting reddit content to Yea Forums just because muh PC console wars. This isn't the first time either. I've noticed this board get more and more brazen and comfortable being openly reddit. If you aggree with reddit so much, go post there. Leave. Get the fuck out. Stop bringing your friends here like we're a zoo of edginess. We already know /pol/ brings in plenty of faggot redditors, we don't need Yea Forums doing it too.

id guess 75% of the posters here are also regular r*ddit posters

NOT EVEN SOME STORE CREDIT AS COMPENSATION LMAO

Well the thing is, Epic Game Store doesn’t have store credit

All purchases MUST be using a credit card

i'm kind of grateful for it
this is actual news and i wouldn't have learned about it if it wasn't for the redditors on here

And around 50% of them came here from reddit. Maybe it really is time to leave this dumpsterfire of a website.

You're trying too hard, reddit-kun. There are no upboats on this site to get.

you're not funny, honey

well, compensating is like admitting they fucked up hard
so they'd rather just go "oopsie, we kind of fucked up, sorry, k bye" and downplay the situation as much as possible

haha! so much this! le epic puns! upboated!

Chill the fuck out it's not like this doesn't happen on other platforms. It's just that most people aren't complete crybaby pussies and complain about it on reddit.

and go where?
the only other place i know is a country specific image board and apart from being fucking dead, it's also dumber than Yea Forums

this is something i'd want to know
who do you think is going to report on it? RPS? Polygon?

ok chang, calm down, no need to go full damage control on me

how much could you get if you actually go to court?

outside of us i mean

>"They apologized! What would be enough?"
>"What do you want the rep to do to solve this in 4 hours?"
What is this mentality. If you can't come up with a way for someone who fucked up hard to properly apologize and fix everything then you can't insult them for their shitty apology?
There's a point where your mistake is too big for a sorry, and it isn't anyone else's job to tell you how to apologize for it because there's no way to take back what you've already done.
I don't know what would be enough beyond a mass suicide of employees, but I know "We regret this error and can't apologize enough" Isn't it.

big companies don't like going to court with nobodies
so they'll almosy always settle outside of court

GameStar just reported on it and they sent his data out to more than just one wrong email address.

Also the guy is looking to sue.

A few thousand. But Epic would pay 10x that to settle outside of court and for you to shut up.

Futaba, but I need to practice kanji. Maybe 420chan, but I'm not really into drugs, so most of their discussion is piss all boring to me. Maybe one of the onion chans, haven't been to those in years, so I don't know if they're still alive, but they're slow and comfy, at least the ones that aren't dedicated to illegal shit like CP.
>it's also dumber than Yea Forums
That's a statement I have a hard time believing, to be honest. This board already feels like it has the average IQ of about 85~

>this is something i'd want to know
For what, 5 minutes of laughter and then move on? It's the same shit as when Bethesda last year leaked shit about consumers, or when Steam got hacked and leaked credit card info, or when Sony got hacked nad credit card info was stolen. 5 minutes to laugh at retards who trust these companies and then move on.

well, it depends, the gdpr request thing is everything, and I do mean Everything the company has on you
so probably from payment info, to address, IP, full names, maybe even some data collected on the back end with out you noticing
so kind of bad?

Amateurs
Steam wouldn't tell you that they did a mistake.

Making a thread about something consumer related that happened to have been posted on Reddit isn't inherently Reddit. I found out about this via an IT blog.

whatever information you gave to them

>The right of access (Article 15) is a data subject right.[17] It gives citizens the right to access their personal data and information about how this personal data is being processed. A data controller must provide, upon request, an overview of the categories of data that are being processed (Article 15(1)(b)) as well as a copy of the actual data (Article 15(3)).
>Both data being 'provided' by the data subject and data being 'observed', such as about behaviour, are included. In addition, the data must be provided by the controller in a structured and commonly used standard electronic format.

they sent all the guy's stored data to someone else in a .pdf

this
based EU gave us based GDPR, before it i had no idea how many sites and even games were stealing my information, now i do

thanks

Back in my day, saying plebbit would get you banned, let alone a screenshot. I remember when plebbit was an insult.

No THQ is not happy about Metros sales at all.

Chinks are used to forwarding all personal info they find to Winnie the Pooh. Dude was probably on autopilot.

They violated GDPR and admitted to it, if the email is legit. They could go to court and win easily.

when the mods are also plebbitors, you get banned for non-work-friendly posts now. i miss white moot. fuck gook moot

Got a source on that? All Google gives me is THQ being happy about it.

easy EASY lawsuit for major damages

what do you win? and apology? your data isn't worth shit

How does epic manage to constantly fuck up.
Even I got my shit together eventually.

Minor damages compensation and a hefty fine for the company based on their yearly income.

My point is that if you think this is going to be taken to court then you're fucking retarded, which you most likely are.

>being a corporate bootlicker

No.
This isn't a fire, user.
If we leave, we need to really set this place on fire. Like we used to.

Shouldn't have broken the law

It's a Chinese company.
Literally the only other type of company that could possibly hold any more contempt for their consumers then American companies.

calm down mutt chang
not every legal system in the world is as retarded as mutt land

user, this means all your data excluding credit card expiry date and CCV
those too if you save payment data
this isn't just your real name, IP, IRL address, phone number, bank account number and preference in 2D girls leaking, the person who gets the mail can buy crypto with all the money on your account for himself and never be caught

Why aren't you posting with your real name?

Upvoted, my fellow reddit user.

i think ive seen this german youtuber but i forgot her name. should look her up again, the content seemed interesting back than and seems interesting now.

>redditor can only seethe about other people who don't rely on gibs

>being literally incapable of posting without mentioning a corporation.

>Epic retards have no defense other than screeming Reddit because its a place their handbook says we dont like and/or they have no argument.

Epic store will be ignoreeld by publishers before the end of the year and youll just have to get over not getting HL3

>Elex 2
they're making another one?
It didn't feel like it had a cliffhanger or proper followup. It's been a while though

Blizzard does that as well, and I can see both positive and negative things with that practice.

It was just some dude. Probably fired dude.

In any more likely scenario, hed have gotten his data and just been unhappy about what he saw.

hahaha yeah gloat all you want steamshills but epic is only taking 12 percent and giving out guaranteed sales of game copies. NO MORE GABEN MONOPOLY EPIC GAMES FOREVER.
