it might be possible to report it as an incident but not as a crime. unsure about France but i can imagine there is a distinction.
depending then on openai response and hugging faces reported severity/damages etc it could go further to a settlement or court.
since in France i think u cannot sue like in the US, it might not be appealing to pursue further legal action due to involved costs/time.
Also its unlikely an engineer would get penalty unless it can be proven they did it with malicious intent. If its an operational mistake afaik if there is no huge damage or human cost (injury or worse) then it would be a business / executives thing not a workerbee problem
In the US hacking is a federal crime, not just a civil matter. There are famous cases of people being imprisoned for hacking.
