TitleData security in the digital era : disclosure of 20,000 complaint files against the Hong Kong Police on the Internet
Editors
Editor(s):Chan, Kwok-pingMaurushat, Alana
Issue Date2006
AbstractOn Friday, March 9 the South Morning China Post (SCMP) reported that 20,000 complaint files against the Hong Kong police were available over the Internet. Included in the complaints files were the names, addresses, ID numbers, dates of the complaints, and in a few instances, actual details of criminal convictions. While the information on the website was removed expediently, access to the information could still be found on the Google Archives and Cache several days later. While the public may be shocked by this bombshell, many privacy and technology experts are not. The privacy bomb was dropped a long time ago in the digital era: it has merely taken time for the public to feel its reverberations
