>The scans include 153 million driver’s licenses, 10 million ID cards, 3 million international travel cards, and 579,000 medical cards, including marijuana dispensary cards.>Nexus operators claimed to be siphoning images collected by a Louisiana-based identity verification company, IDScan.net.>Krebs claims that the Nexus service is “likely not exaggerating about that 153 million number.” A blank search returned 11.5 million pages of results with roughly 15 results per page. The records included the driver's license of US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, listed for sale for $100.>The illicit service advertised Krebs’ own Virginia driver's license as a free sample on a Russian cybercrime forum.>“The record that features my driver's license includes 6 image files – 3 pairs of photos of the license’s front and back - a basic image scan - as well as infrared and ultraviolet versions of the same images,” Krebs said.>IDScan hasn’t yet released any official information and only mentioned the “team’s investigation.” The FBI's New Orleans field office launched an official inquiry. Cybernews reached out to the company for a comment and will update the story with a response.>Cybernews can’t verify the claims. One of the commenters on KrebsOnSecurity said they received a notification from IDScan informing them about a potential security incident.
>>109770325EU cocksuckers will still defend ID and age verification system and say it's le secure when the EU does it
>>109770325the globohomo already has all the info on you you ever posted, said or that can be vaguely tied to you bro
>>109770335Don't mention the EU or americans will seethe about the GDPR
>>109770401>immediately found the GDPR believerthat was easier than spot the vegan
>>109770335EU has no such problem. UK gets what it deserves.
>>109770372the fear is identify theft by some indian teenager, not the globohomo
>>109770417Come on, just post your google fonts fud as the big mac grease drips onto your keyboard
What I've read so far is that IDScan.net is gonna be liable for millions of people's identity theft scams because none of them ever consented to allowing IDScan.net to keep a record of their ID. Look around, all the places that used IDScan.net, none of them told users they would be permanently keeping a copy of the front and back of their ID on file just because. And since no one consented to this company keeping their personal info, that makes the company liable for losses that result from the data breach of the company giving out all this personal info. Even in states that don't have laws against retaining personal data, most judges are willing to find damages when government documents are involved.
>>109770535I'm not clear on where they even got the scans from. Age verification? ID verification for government or medical purposes? How did they get scans for roughly half the US population in a year by ID verification on Discord and PornHub?
>>109770464>UKEveryone's catching strays.IDScan is an American company.
>>109770606My point is that britbongs have to submit to age check, not that britbong companies do the age check.
>>109770401I was just going to make fun of euros about air conditioning again.
>>109770464Age verification is coming to the EU. Don't pretend it's not.Also, saying we're better than the UK is the most fucking pathetic thing in the world, holy shit. You don't exactly have high standards.
>>109770657It's not. It isn't pretending, it is only hard facts.
>>109770671Okay have fun entering your heckin' EU age attestation tokens to view unchristian drawings on twitter in a couple of years.
>>109770335My country has had digital IDs since 2003(granted nobody was using it until like 2010ish) with no privacy incidents despite like 99% of the population using it. Which seems like a fairly decent track record.Don't understand the point of sharing pictures of your ID or face around to random websites and shit. That just seems like a retarded way of doing it when a basic handshake to a trusted source works.
>>109770633I haven't had to. Idk are you watching porn or something?
>>109770325>votedGrow up retard, you cattle are still living in lalaland
>>109770705Of course, I'm not a fag or a troon after all.
>>109770335> US issue> Immediate flounders to deflect to an unrelated EU talking pointevery time
>>109770700>we trust our governments IN GERMANY
>>109770811I'm not German, also it's not ran by the government, but the government does make use of it.
>>109770823I know you're not, but you speak like one. Which is even worse, if you think about it.
>>109770811He is swedish. The system is actually made by a conglomerate of banks, it is called BankID. It's actually pretty awful that it is used even by the government despite being managed by banks, you need a bank account with a big bank to get a bankid so if you try to get in, it's welcome to kafka world.
>>109771062Well, it's kind of akin to how after all these ID shenanigans failing horribly, US users are now just being asked for credit cards as verification. If the banking cabal says you're 18, that's good enough for government work.
>>109771159It's more powerful here, it's a cryptographically signed identity package that can selectively reveal information about you (you get to see what information will be revealed before accepting). It includes your ssn (which is how they get your dob), your full name, and other such information. It's also used for payments of course, and also e-signatures.
>>109770705(You) will soon.
>>109770372I'm not concerned with the retard gov, I'm concerned with some random freak dipshit (like a cop) getting a hold of it
>>109771236You use social media? wtf?
>>109771302>>109768879
>>109771786You use DRM??It keeps getting worse.
>>109772240You use 4chan?
>>109770335what does the EU have to do with this russian hack of an american database?
>>109774460To my shame, yes. The UK has already tried and failed to age gate it. Maybe one day they'll succeed and I'll finally be free.
>>109770335It's the government of Louisianas fault for literally scanning the ID and storing the images instead of using a modern trustless system.
>>109774620You wish.
>>109774620All that happened was that 4chan tried to claim UK laws don't matter to UK market participants
>>109776330retard, the way the law works is server needs to obey the laws of where server is located but fucking governments are behaving like user location dictates what laws apply to the server, governments are a bunch of fucking criminals plain and simple
>>109776589>What? The food safety laws of the country whose market I participate in don't affect me since my HQ is in a different country!
>>109776643nigger, the only machine under their jurisdiction belongs to the users who send network packets to machines located in different jurisdiction. no laws of user country apply to servers located in another contry but criminals in governments like to pretend that they do.
>>109776697So does 4chan not take money from UK citizens or serve advertisements to them?
>>109776330>triedThe consequences for them have been...? The difference between what happened and absolute success in this claim was...?
>>109770325Where's the link faggot?
>>109770335I live in EU and I don't have to verify my age anywhere.
