HELSINKI (AP) — A Finnish court on Tuesday sentenced a 26-year-old man to six years and three months in prison for hacking thousands of patient records at a private psychotherapy center and seeking ransom from some patients over the sensitive data.
The case has caused outrage in the Nordic nation, with a record number of people — about 24,000 — filing criminal complaints with police.
