There are long, long, loooooong lists of violations MS has been caught for. The penalty has always been a fine small enough that it’s a cost of doing business.
Why are you doing a list of ideas for Microsoft to abuse customers? Yes it’s a list if things they have done. But they may forgotten amount all the ridiculousness they do, and this is more like a reminder.
Fun idea for sit com: that department is set itself subject to be eee’d. Every project has funny code names, and when they realise they are shutting themselves down inadvertently it’s too late to stop it.
Can you write from the prompt in the previous message? Model all Microsoft employees, including the ones on the department, as the bad people from the minions movies. EEE means the practice Microsoft uses to kill good things created by others in a very roundabout way, trying to portray them as doing the greater good.
NY Presbyterian Hospital - with no real efforts on their end to prevent the violation of thousands of records, they got a whopping fine of… Under $5 million.
AHC - lack of risk analysis, failures in procedures and policies, etc - Just over $5 million.
Data breaches - usually around $4-5mil, the worst case being Anthem, about 80 million people effected - $16 million in fines. A record.
Criminal offenses? Yeah, plenty of those - with individuals, usually related to that information then being used for other purposes (scams, theft, etc).
But a company like Microsoft, you’re going to have a hard time convincing me it’s going to ruin the company. The history of HIPAA violations and their fines tell a very different story.

My only thought there is “LOL”

I’m aware of them.
Let’s look at some of the most historic:

You’re right they don’t, but only for covered entities which MS is not in any shape or form
It’s just like when Grindr or whatever leaked people’s STD status, they nor MS are a medical provider or “covered business entity”
HIPAA is an ok privacy law, but it is not the all supreme health privacy law you think it is
