so, the company was Vastaamo. was because it got bankrupt after the breach, and GDPR violations.

On one hand what the fuck just happeend, on the other hand it’s Finland, in Finland massmurderer will complain about lack of PS5 in prison and.

Dude, did you even read the (very short, obviously biased and sometimes factually incorrect) article you linked? Breivik is in Norway, not in Finland.
Also, why the fuck should they not have access to ps3, books and such. Prison is about taking away one’s freedom, not about putting people in psychological or physical distress. In Norway we want convicts to be in a better state when they come out than when they got incarcerated (though Breivik will most likely never come out). Who wants to live next to a person who have been 20 years in solitary, I mean come on.

Yep. The American system of punishment over rehabilitation is so strange to me. It won’t help one bit when (if in this case) they get out.
Edit: also Norway, not FinlandI guess
