What if parents could see everything their children had ever purchased? What if your ex could get a list of all your expenses? Without you knowing, or using the service yourself? It's already happening because many companies allow this kind of spying with nothing more than a person's bank card number, account number or license plate number.
Norway is far ahead in adoption of digital solutions. Services, bank services, and citizenship. Automatic detection of license plates, and digital receipt. Now the dark side of this is revealed: several cases of the next level stalker ware. Where bad actors gain access to other peoples information via centralized services, using easily obtainable, pieces of information.
Even when made aware of the problem the companies choose to accept the risk, pushing the responsibility and cost to stay safe on to the unknowing users. But what can we do ?
The talk will describe the process of pursuing some of the cases in a country with GDPR implemented, as well as discuss efforts to provide non-users with additional security and privacy.
