Article headline: Samsung Suffers Another Massive Data Breach: Should You Be Worried?

Certainly any operations within the US will be subject to data collection by one three letter agency or another. I'm not sure how much South Korea likes to spy on their own companies, but I think it's a safe bet they're collecting data too.
