      If I were told to remain quiet I'd get that in writing. I don't want my legal future on the hook to bad management. Also, if anyone really believes their data isn't already on the dark web they're fooling themselves.

        Agreed.

          And that's why GDPR is important: in such cases the legal owner of the data will get effed, twice. Much better to lose face and be transparent rather than getting sentenced.
