Dartmouth College professor M. Eric Johnson, in collaboration with Tiversa, Inc., a company that monitors peer-to-peer networks to provide security services, wrote an article titled “Data Hemorrhages in the Health-Care Sector.” In preparing the article, Johnson and Tiversa searched the networks for data that could be used to commit medical or financial identity theft. They found a document that con- tained the Social Security numbers, insurance information, and treatment codes for patients of LabMD, Inc. Tiversa noti- fied LabMD of the find in order to solicit its business. Instead of hiring Tiversa, however, LabMD filed a suit in a federal district court against the company, alleging trespass, conver- sion, and violations of federal statutes. What do these facts indicate about the security of private information? Explain. How should the court rule?
