New from 404 Media: we’ve obtained an internal Google database detailing thousands of privacy/security incidents. Everything from Street View collecting license plate data, to childrens’ voices being recorded. Most not previously reported https://www.404media.co/google-leak-reveals-thousands-of-privacy-incidents/ 14 comments
 @josephcox I wonder if that Sabre incident is covered in mandatory breach notices? @josephcox Damn though, that "Recommendations based on what you delete" sounds awesome, I would LOVE to be able to send a "Never show me anything like this again" signal. No wonder it was against policy.  @uastronomer @josephcox huh? That IS possible. That's the signal you send by saying not interested or don't recommend channel! @josephcox @neurovagrant oh, I have that issue with YouTube recs based on deleted history.  @josephcox @Laukidh @neurovagrant I have a strong suspicion that they lack enough people to properly implement these features @Laukidh @josephcox @neurovagrant Sometimes we do need a team bigger than what a pizza and feed to build big systems  @cek This result is making these lists public is to make Google employees less likely to admit to mistakes. It doesn't decrease the number of mistakes.   @josephcox @404mediaco @404media amy plans to share said data with #journalists, #privacyAdvocates, #lawyers and / or #regulators? If not, why?? @josephcox I'd say even one more reason for #decentralization and #selfhosting, but such an incident shouldn't even surprise anyone anymore by now. |

Here is just a very small sample of what is included in this database that we obtained and verified.
