Online affair website AshleyMadison.com was dark last week, paid when they called for the deletion of personal information promise has not been kept, exploded with 37 million users.
Although the website will completely delete a user on the site, using records and personal information, but the user purchase history, including the true name and address and will not be deleted. Details please see network after news of the affair of Lei Feng Web site was hacked, did you shake? 》。
Good clear information had not been achieved, how can we be safe?
Privacy policy ambiguous, really trying to do?
Some people may say, no, I'm upright, not to cheat. But this may not be a bit too young. Take Facebook for example, the above provision is written this way:
"In the process of deleting, and other Facebook users can access this information. "
However, don't let people see your Facebook doesn't mean you own information has been deleted from the Internet. This was Brendan Van Alsenoy, a law professor at the Catholic University of Leuven. "Facebook did not specify ' associated with users ' information are these. "
AshleyMadison.com and actually practice similar to the website is only hiding the information, not delete. Facebook to play skill word games is not easy. Half dead now that everyone has done this sort of thing--don't try to delete the account!
Lei feng's small part mind now looks like:
Facebook owner is interpreted in this way:
"Some of the information for technical reasons will be retained in our database. When you delete an account, when information and identification system solutions of all tied. "
Van Alsenoy added, according to the provisions of the EU law,
"If the data is already being told ' anonymous enough ', an individual unable to adhere to the site deleted. "
"Enough" standard is too subjective, is questioned by many people.
Actually Gmail policy rules also has a similar provision.
"The user can deactivate the account, but once the user needs, we can help users to recover the account. "
That is, the account information is not really deleted.
"In order to prevent loss of information, we will back up the data, and you want to delete this also needs some time before. "
Sounds like is understandable, after all, in order to prevent a sudden collapse of the system, have no prepared patient is very important. However, regardless of the time is not the same as reset, but users often have no way of knowing their information is deleted or not.
Unexpectedly, elegible to become eternal "hate"
Data anonymization with the development of science and technology is becoming more and more difficult, United Kingdom information privacy law of the University of East Anglia, Paul Bernal, said anonymous data return has been shown to be feasible.
Point is, we don't know if this information will and his associate, does not know exactly what data will be "on record". Many unlucky is because before the killing on the Internet "how to kill" and "poison", was arrested police found the browsing of evidence.
David Dunning of Cornell University said,
"People tend not to take into account that in the long run, also believe that within a short time, a sensitive post will not have any effect on its own, however, because people often overlook these details, not letting themselves get into trouble. " Swarovski iPhone 4 Case
So to speak, so you simply have to have the technology, can always find traces of users on the Internet. Regardless of how the site carefully to other information stored on the server, black was able to find. So, the best way is to avoid too much personal information registered on the Internet. But because of the potential danger of choking, not so worthwhile.
