Times Car data leak heads to class action, 100,000+ want in
The suit seeks ¥50,000 per person for leaked licence images and ¥30,000 for other data.
@carsharemania posted on Monday that the Times Car data leak is heading to a class action, with more than 100,000 people wanting to join. The post says the claim is ¥50,000 per person for leaked licence images and ¥30,000 for the rest. It drew about 2,400 likes.
Another post on the board by @polymarketjapan says it pencils out to about ¥227 billion across roughly 6.6 million leaked records. That figure is the poster's own arithmetic.
Why it mattersIt is a large collective action over a data leak in Japan. Watch for court filings for the actual numbers.
