The Matt Weiss U of M data breach case is unfolding fast—and it’s serious. Weiss, a former U of M assistant football coach, was investigated for unauthorized access to university email accounts tied to student-athlete data and sensitive university communications.
U of M confirmed that the breach involved “unauthorized access of high-profile accounts.” The FBI, along with U of M police, is involved.
This isn’t just a football scandal—it could be a violation of federal privacy laws, including the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) and Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), depending on what data was accessed.
If you’re a student-athlete or affiliated party and suspect your info was compromised, you may be a victim of a privacy violation—and you may have legal recourse.
