  12. Last July, Qantas leaked private information of 4 million of its customers after a hack.

    The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner has just published its inquiry into that. Apparently it's all fine. Qantas holds your details for seven years, but that's fine. The data was "vished" (voice social engineering), and they really couldn't have done anything more. It's all just fine. Nothing to see here.
