Private investigator files suit for data abuse

Yet another lawsuit has been filed against various governmental entities for abuse of the state's driver's license database. The Star-Tribune reported that Hilary DeVary is suing over a reported 166 accesses of her private data. Eleven law enforcement agencies, two state departments, and a federal agency are involved. Many of the unauthorized accesses occured after a newspaper article was published about DeVary seven years ago.
