Great story by @zackwhittaker and nice research by @chick3nman. PSA: don't use deterministic hashing/encryption schemes to hide sensitive data on low-cardinality fields.

Air Canada ordered to pay $812 to passenger over bad chatbot information. Their novel claim was that even though the chat was on an AC support web page, the correct information was somewhere else on the site and that in any event the chatbot was a "separate legal entity". More of this, please.
