British Judge Uses Personal Email To Send Details of Sensitive Court Case (theregister.co.uk)
New submitter evolutionary shares a report from The Register: Concerns have been raised over a British judge's use of his personal email address to send out a ruling in a family court case, which contained sensitive personal information. The Register has seen evidence that the judge in question used two personal accounts to send out a draft ruling and final ruling: one using a domain owned by his son and another email account associated with iCloud. The use of personal email seems highly unusual - with all government departments subject to the mandatory guidance for securing government email. [One legal expert, who asked not to be named, told The Register that the judge's behavior raised a number of issues such as a possible breach of mandatory standards, and "may pose a risk to the organization he works for and those he interacts with outside the organization."
evolutionary adds: "The article doesn't specify the tone suggests emails sent were unencrypted."

Why all the BeauHD hate around here? I watched one of his videos on YouTube and he seems like a nice enough guy. You trolls should just lay off and get a life.
I agree, there is no need to spew poison. That said, though, I find BeauHD deeply annoying - he seems to mainly post references to superficial pop-science with big, glossy pictures that stretch all across the screen and a gawping, "wow, cool" style of wording, and presenting old knowledge as some fantastic, new discovery. He probably hasn't realised that there are many non-sales people on slashdot, or perhaps he just doesn't care.
