| I think if you get caught exfiltrating data they'll sue you for much more than $200K. |

| I don't think anybody would do it purely for money. I would rather see someone who is terminally ill and decides to do some "good". |

| ▲ | dlenski an hour ago | parent [-] | | There are not too many mentally-sharp, fully-employed, terminally-ill people that I have met. Even fewer at tech companies. And even fewer who are single and childless. (Google would likely go after the estate of anyone who did this.) | | |
| ▲ | bitmasher9 40 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | I wonder how hard they would press an estate. It’s bad PR to go after widows and surviving children, and the data has already escaped. This is something they’d want to settle quietly, so the family would have leverage. | |

| Copy data into extra large capacity micro sdcard and hide it in your rubiks cube, nobody will suspect a thing |

| ▲ | diab0lic an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | It’s the “ Copy data into extra large capacity micro sdcard” step that gets you caught. Nobody is stopping you from leaving with an SD card or USB stick at Google. | |

| I'm sure they'd go after you, but hypothetically: What damages would they claim? They still have the data, which isn't their IP to begin with. |

| ▲ | shevy-java 10 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Good point. But it would still be a breach of Google policy, most likely and they signed a pact with the devil so ... |

| If your money is in private crypto or offshore you have nothing to worry about. |

| ▲ | zuzululu an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | i'd strongly caution anybody foolish enough to go down this path financial watchdogs and international treaties make it impossible unless you are perhaps a multi billionaire who can afford to buy people at the political level | |
| ▲ | mock-possum 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Except perhaps jail time. Lying about your assets to avoid paying a lawful fine is criminal. Just because they can’t see your money doesn’t mean they can’t prove that you have it, and can’t jail you for hiding it to get out paying a fine. | | |
