The government pays farms to burn crops. It's not the destruction that matters; it's the promise not to distribute that matters. For uniquely identifiable data and objects, a reputable extortion business will honor their promises to earn new customers
Yet again, our government ignores the national security threat from foreign terrorists. The State serves only itself.
"Company pays" means "customers (taxpayers) pay", since Canvas is effectively an monopoly
Paying terrorists must be made illegal. Senior Managers must be held liable for damages to customers.

The current American government is the national security threat. This is like lamenting there's never any police when the KKK marches.
We should just start grading school work based on what the kid says they did and how well they did it and give raises at work in a similar fashion.
That's the kind of world I want to live in.
