    My 'liberty financial advisor' (who doesnt do any advising) just uploaded documents to SigningHubZA. This feels like a breach of the privacy act in I did not authorise SigningHubZA to store my private data, or can people just share my data like this on a whim?

    I am absolutely horrified with the #SouthAfrica Medical Profession's use of GMail.

    A friend recently received a quotation from several Surgeons and related Medical Services for a procedure. Each quotation had the Full Names, Address, Phone & ID Number, as well as the Procedure to be performed on it.

    Needless to say, all this information is happily gobbled up by Google & Bard and as far as I am concerned, illegal according to the #POPI Act.

    @kaasbaas and don't think we are immune in #SouthAfrica . If you look at the T's & C's of the Banks, Cell Networks and other Call-Centers, you will find that data 'may be' analysed in 3rd countries and although I can't prove it, I would not be surprised if they are using the Amazon Call-Center Tech. Which, according to my interpretation of the #POPI Act #POPIA is illegal. Profiling, processing in a 3rd Country, Mood Analysis etc.

    He knows when you’ve been sleeping.
    He knows when you’re awake.
    He knows if you’ve been bad or good.

    Santa is going to be in trouble with #GDPR and #POPI cause he did not get explicit opt in for this level of monitoring

    Photos of travellers who entered and exited the U.S. were stolen in a data breach - If it were a private company who'd be held liable?

    Photos of travelers collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have been compromised in a data breach, the agency revealed on Monday. "The subcontractor’s network was subsequently compromised by a malicious cyber-attack. No CBP systems were compromised."
    Irrespective of who was finally at fault, citizens trust an agency (or do not trust, but are forced to trust) to collect private data and they expect that agency to take all measures to safeguard it. Here in South Africa, we have the POPI Act which can hold CEO's of companies privately liable and could result in jail terms. All these laws though are not worth the paper they are written on until someone really does go to jail. So what happens with government agencies? Does someone really get ultimately held liable and get sent to jail? If so, we can expect serious changes to the protection of data with "trust no-one" policies in place. squeet.me/objects/962c3e1076e7
