Well, the vehicle ownership is a matter of public record. I don't know what (if at all) they charge for the database in electronic form. My understanding from the swedish reporting is that the database that was e-mailed did not contain top secred data or anything national security sensitive. Just that they accidentally sent out the internal database, with actual names and other personal data on people with protected identities (e.g. witness protection).
The outsourcing of all kinds of secret data is a shitstorm of incompetence of its own.

The crime she committed ("Recklessness with secret documents") carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison (BrB 19 kap. Â9). And altough I wouldn't mind seeing her spending some time behind bars, after having read (the redacted, non-juicy, parts of) the Secret service investigastion, I wouldn't really put the blame on her.
The whole mess started before she was appointed director of the agency, she seems to basically have been brought in and told: "Sign these documents, otherwise the outsourcing is gonna be delayed even further".
I would like to see a lot more heads roll before this story gets filed away.

They subscribed to what should have been the non-secret public database of vehicle ownership (used to target ads to owners of a particular brand of car, issuing parking tickets to registered owners, etc.) Transportstyrelsen e-mailed the unredacted (including true identity of car owners with "skyddad identitet" - protected identity) excel document to whomever subscribed to the vehicle registry.

Well, that's nothing compared to uncrop.

3.10 is longterm, even tough kernel.org doesn't say so yet. http://www.kroah.com/log/blog/2013/08/04/longterm-kernel-3-dot-10/

The original article in my local newspaper (västerbottens-kuriren) said that his calendar (which was retured a while after the crime) spanned the last ten years. But "'[the laptop] contained, among other things, all the materials I've produced during the summer and fall. Unfortunately I have been sloppy about taking backups.', said the professor."

Well, yesterday and earlier today you couldn't see the comic w/o flash.
Thanks for pointing this out, I had just removed my cronjob to fetch-dilbert-and-set-as-wallpaper-script, probably need to rewrite it tough.
