The unbelievably egocentric ramblings of paranoid schizophrenics / conspiracy theorists

The gen y ones worry about identity theft, fraud and framing by having someone's name...brb guys posting my photos from my vacation to Instagram and FB for all to see along with some visual identifiers of where and how I live.

the whole wikileaks thing i guess has a lot of people spooked. the whole data collection thing. but they can do that without a census.

what I dont get is how that information would be useful to anyone other than statisticians and marketing firms. All of whom would use that info for what purpose? anything beyond knocking on your front door is illegal. and you're going to get charities/real estate agents/politicians/salespeople knocking on your door knowing your address and possibly name anyway.

oh no someone will see what my income is! just like my payslip displays. and group certificates. and ATO info. wait, lemme just fill this survey for Uni of NSW looking into eating habits which includes my age group, income bracket, postcode, brief medical history.

there is much more than just name involved here however.

 

names, address, salary, birth dates so on..

the info they are collecting could be used for quite a bit.

 

Seeing on Facebook that you were a rebel and got a Tiger beer singlet not a Bintang one is not really identity theft.

You mean the stuff tied to your tax file number, bank accounts, Medicare etc. Info the evil government organisations already have?

There is arguably infinitely more danger available from exposing strangers to your social media profiles than data collected by government organisations.

Tracking cookies for google ads etc. are more intrusive and most users happily live with them.

yes but I also know the effort Tax office puts into securing data.,

and Know that ABS does not put in same effort.

 

Short of it is a census form has all the details I need to apply and get a short term loan, Credit card in your name.

 

having access to your Instagram of funky coffees does not do that.

Biggest issue with un savory people and Social media is knowing when are away for theft and they can target things.

(yes I am glossing over the whole grooming/catfish/ such as not relevant to this convo)

I first met Mohsen online, back when he was 19/F/SoCal... so the catfish risk is still as relevant as ever.
He still won't give me back the money that I paid him to fly over here to meet me.

Baited me by saying he had a quick 32 with an RB26, but I'm still yet to see any proof of this.

All the other organisations and bodies have those details too and to my knowledge census has had no breaches of personal information security, so I don't think it's a relevant concern as their protocols are obviously working. I'm pretty sure the uproar is over them retaining name for 4 years instead of 18 months anyway.

Social media can be used for evidence by courts and forced to hand over information in police investigations - ABS can't. I also think you're giving too little credit to how powerful social media can be for finding out information through logical deduction. I've used it to track down people who owe money and the sheriff and myself were astounded myself at how much I could find out by plotting it out CSI style. Trawl through someone's public FB or insta or twitter, you'll find their full name and date of birth which is usually enough to bypass most third party account holder security checks. From there you can have their more clumsy staff disclose addresses, phone numbers etc.

Put it this way: you start with census and I'll start with social media and we'll see who can obtain more details about someone...and I'm not talking their latte preference!

I think there is a lot more data breaches than you realize. Even in AU gov, 

Unfortunately Au don't have mandatory disclosure laws like US do.

(there if you data is hacked the company has to provide you with credit monitoring for a period of years)

 

It does usually end up with a call to us to make sure it does not happen again however.

if it does make it to the press we just get the call even sooner.

 

 

anyhow I'll leave your anti social media paranoia and will get back to actually securing your data. 

  

lol I'm not paranoid about social media, just not egocentric enough to assume someone would want information on me...but if they did...good luck.

Happy census filling!

Hacked 14 times in 3 years... okay den..


Bro, try again. There ain't no way you're getting more information from 90% of social media accounts than you can from the Cencus.. And besides, you're looking for the information CONTAINED within the cencus, ON social media. So you lose this bet anyway.

It's very simple borci...

Pick a random person - see who can find more info about them - you using census (you have to hack it first) or I using social media kgo

Understand yet?

And that's social media without hacking

If we introduce that into the mix

And play the statistics game

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
