Privacy Means Safety

Hi Everyone!

Today’s article is a heavy topic, but a very important one to talk about.

In this article, I present real instances when people have been severely harmed, or even killed, when their data was leaked, stolen, or otherwise made available to someone hostile to them.

Data privacy isn’t a trivial matter.

Not taking our own privacy seriously, or worse, not taking other’s privacy seriously can lead to devastating consequences.

Privacy also means safety :green_heart::locked:

Such things are never easy or fun to write or explain. So, thank you for doing so well.

Another brilliant article! I highlighted the crap out of it. Too many gems of wisdom. This is the biggest takeaway for me:

Despite all the technological protections we can put on data, and despite all the regulations we can ask organizations to comply with, if our culture doesn’t understand the danger of sharing the data of others, we will fail to protect the most vulnerable people in our society.
