In Britain, 2008 begins like 2007 has ended: with a new data scandal.

A British person - always be aware of PC when talking about Britain, mind you - has lost his laptop - with 600.000 files of personal data regarding military members.

It's the same Britain that wants to replace census with a a longitudinal study that even includes samples of genetic material while saying at the same time the data would be "safe". http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=129140 (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=129140)

"Storing sensitive data en masse and make people trasparent to the state is safe." - Yeah, sure. So far, British data scandals were accidents caused by mindless "persons". Just wait until criminal energy sets into the business. Such files are pure money.

Come to Britain for the big give away on every person's details right down to when they last had sex. Yes it's the big give away, get it before it runs out people.









I am being cynical yet again. :D :rotfl:

Little wonder people are moving out of Britain in droves, I'd do the same if I could.
