The South Korean Supreme Court has ruled that illegal online casino operators who use stolen personal data can also be punished for data privacy violations.
The court's first division dismissed an appeal challenging a district court verdict that found a man guilty of violating the Personal Information Protection Act. This ruling sets a precedent for holding online casino operators accountable for data privacy breaches involving stolen personal information.
The decision reinforces the importance of protecting personal data in online gambling activities and sends a strong message to operators regarding data privacy compliance.
