Sicurezza Nazionale a Rischio: La Violazione dei Dati della Polizia Nazionale del Paraguay Scuote il Paese

Più di 500.000 #documenti interni e immagini, nonché 175 GB di #database #SQL, sono stati rubati dal #sistema della Polizia Nazionale del #Paraguay (Policía Nacional del Paraguay).

A causa della presenza di #informazioni di identificazione personale (#PII), come fotografie di detenuti e resoconti di incidenti, i #dati sono disponibili solo a giornalisti e #ricercatori.

#Illinois just made it possible to sue people for #doxxing attacks

It allows victims to recover damages and to request "a temporary restraining order, emergency order of protection, or preliminary or permanent injunction to restrain and prevent the disclosure or continued disclosure of a person's personally identifiable information or sensitive personal information."

General #privacy tip: Don't share unnecessary #PersonallyIdentifyingInformation

ASL (Age/Sex/Location) is not something anyone really needs a real answer to in the majority of cases, or any answer.

In most cases, blocking the party asking for such information is the right thing to do.

The number of gasoline stations in the USA alone (as of 2017 via https://www.statista.com/statistics/525107/number-of-gasoline-stations-in-the-united-states/) was about 115.4K. Guess they average 5 pumps each. That over 675K gasoline "chargers."
Still a long, long way to go all things being equal.

That said, these devices aren't dumb. They will be collecting all kinds of #data per this article: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/challenge-tesla-major-automakers-launch-ev-charging-network-2023-07-26/ from which personal behavior will either be explicit or inferred.

#LinkedIn is a weird network. It always existed a bit in the shadow of the well-known social media. Part is professional network, 'rolodex-like' and then there's the timeline full of platitudes and full of people debasing themselves for 'business reasons' I suppose.

And LI is king of #DeceptiveDesign. Especially on the mobile side, if you refuse to use their app. The Firefox site is deliberately limited in many subtle and annoying ways.

Also guess LI gathers a rich wealth of #PII.

Repeat a 1,000 times: #Google is an #advertising moloch and #Chrome browser monopolist, NOT your friendly free service provider!

Google is about to smack down on the #OpenWeb, killing it with their so-called "Web Environment Integrity API" #DRM proposal.

"Here's plenty #ads. Now hand over your #PII so we can grow our #SurveillanceCapitalism empire"

I needed to submit a form to my HSA administrator (hsabank.com). The form has my social security number on it. The offered ways to submit it are email (insecure), fax (obsolete and inconvenient), and U.S. Mail (slow and inconvenient).
I'm no longer surprised to encounter financial institutions that do this; I'm just sad.
There are many secure file upload products. Please, I'm begging you, deploy one of them if your company needs people to upload #PII.

TL;DR - one tool I keep using & recommending is DeleteMe. It's affordable, easy to use, and scrubs my personal data from the web effectively.

As a tech writer, I sometimes get coupons to share with my readers. Here's one for 20% off of a year of DeleteMe. Enjoy!
