"Tesla's Order Cancellation Leaves San Jose Bakery Reeling"

Tesla canceled a 2,000-pie order from a small San Francisco pie shop, leaving the shop out of a few thousand dollars. The shop owner, Voahangy Rasetarinera, turned down other orders to fulfill Tesla's request, only to have the order canceled due to a "miscommunication." This incident has sparked community backlash, with many supporting the small business. This isn't the first time a company led by Elon Musk has faced criticism for not paying vendors.

Sutter Health has disclosed a data breach involving one of its vendors, Virgin Pulse, which exposed the personal information of over 845,000 patients. The breach occurred due to a ransomware attack on a file transfer tool called MOVEit. The compromised information includes names, dates of birth, health insurance details, provider names, treatment cost information, and treatment information or diagnosis. Sutter Health is offering affected patients a year of free access to Experian IdentityWorks for credit monitoring. No social security numbers or financial information were impacted. This breach follows similar incidents involving the MOVEit tool affecting other organizations, including government agencies.

Biotech Company Mistakenly Informs 400 Patients They May Have Cancer

Grail, the maker of a blood test for cancer, has acknowledged that around 400 of its customers were mistakenly told last month that they might have the disease due to a software configuration issue from one of its vendors. The problem was not caused by inaccurate test results, and more than half of the people who received the letter in error had not yet had their blood drawn for the test. The vendor, PWNHealth, said it addressed the underlying problem within an hour of becoming aware of it and has implemented additional processes to ensure it does not happen again.
