Turn it around on these imbecilic "administrators" who are suing a man they should be getting down on their knees and thanking not to mention paying.

250k records found to be accessible? The personal information and privacy of these users at risk due to incompetence or negligence? They're now wasting time and money prosecuting this man instead of fixing their broken crap?

Two words: Class action. I hope there's a lawyer who can slap on a pair and step up to this BS.
