Not very with it today, but I'd missed this a couple of weeks ago:
Cambridge Analytica sister firm pleads guilty, fined £21k for failing to obey UK information commish
www.theregister.co.uk/2019/01/09/cambridge_analytica_scl_elections_guilty_plea_ico_21000_fine/
SCL Elections Ltd, stablemate of scandal-hit Cambridge Analytica, has been fined a total of £21,000 after pleading guilty to not complying with an Information Commissioner's Office enforcement notice.
[...]
"This case is a discrete part of a broader matter," prosecuting barrister Ben Summers, on behalf of the ICO, told the court. "It begins in January 2017 when Professor David Carroll, who is a United States citizen and resident, made a subject access request to Cambridge Analytica UK Ltd."
[...]
Summers told the judge that SCLE had eventually refused Professor Carroll's request because he was not a British citizen or a resident of the UK, quoting from an email the firm sent to the ICO: "He had no right to make a subject access request any more than a member of the Taliban sitting in a cave in the remotest corner of Afghanistan."
Nice to see the Cambridge Analytica group of companies being told, "No, you will obey the law."
But also interesting for the use of language. Like some other actors in today's politics, SCLE was unable to engage in a straightforward, administrative transaction without dead-catting: pumping in utterly irrelevant but emotionally charged references in order to distract and confuse the reader.
