>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.

EU cocksuckers will still defend ID and age verification system and say it's le secure when the EU does it
>>
>>109770325
the globohomo already has all the info on you you ever posted, said or that can be vaguely tied to you bro

Don't mention the EU or americans will seethe about the GDPR

>>109770335
EU has no such problem. UK gets what it deserves.

the fear is identify theft by some indian teenager, not the globohomo

>>109770417
Come 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.

>>109770535
I'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
>UK
Everyone's catching strays.
IDScan is an American company.

>>109770606
My point is that britbongs have to submit to age check, not that britbong companies do the age check.

I was just going to make fun of euros about air conditioning again.
>>
>>109770464
Age 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.
>>
>>109770657
It's not. It isn't pretending, it is only hard facts.
>>
>>109770671
Okay have fun entering your heckin' EU age attestation tokens to view unchristian drawings on twitter in a couple of years.
>>
>>109770335
My 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.

I haven't had to. Idk are you watching porn or something?

>we trust our governments IN GERMANY
>>
>>109770811
I'm not German, also it's not ran by the government, but the government does make use of it.
>>
>>109770823
I know you're not, but you speak like one. Which is even worse, if you think about it.
>>
>>109770811
He 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.
>>
>>109771062
Well, 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.
>>
>>109771159
It'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.
>>
>>109770372
I'm not concerned with the retard gov, I'm concerned with some random freak dipshit (like a cop) getting a hold of it

You use 4chan?

>>109770335
what does the EU have to do with this russian hack of an american database?
>>
>>109774460
To 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.
>>
>>109770335
It's the government of Louisianas fault for literally scanning the ID and storing the images instead of using a modern trustless system.
>>
>>109774620
You wish.
>>
>>109774620
All that happened was that 4chan tried to claim UK laws don't matter to UK market participants
>>
>>109776330
retard, 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!
>>
>>109776643
nigger, 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.
>>
>>109776697
So does 4chan not take money from UK citizens or serve advertisements to them?
>>
>>109776330
>tried
The consequences for them have been...? The difference between what happened and absolute success in this claim was...?
>>
>>109770325
Where's the link faggot?
>>
>>109770335
I live in EU and I don't have to verify my age anywhere.
