There were TV news reports about it at the time. It was certainly
featured on both breakfast and 10pm news on the BBC. What I find more
worrying is the fact the average Daily Mail reader wasn't saying this
was the best idea since sliced bread....... Which makes you wonder if
it's those people buying kiddie porn on their Visa cards......?

Subject: [data-protection] Data Protection (Processing of Sensitive
Data) Order 2006
I picked this one up from the Compliance and Privacy site:
http://tinyurl.com/gvykf
It doesn't affect my own company or clients that I have currently, and
it probably doesn't affect many on this discussion list in terms of the
processing and disclosure, but it has seemed to slip under the radar.
I hadn't thought about the implications until I clicked the "Discuss
this article" link at the foot. I was in "Those with nothing to hide
have nothing to fear" thought mode, I suppose. The post on that
discussion forum from "dazed" (don't people pick strange names?)
highlighted something that I wonder if the lawmakers have thought
through - that of those who are convicted and thus whose data is
disclosed, and then who are subsequently cleared on appeal.
What happens to their credit status. I know that, at the time, it's the
least of their worries, but is the process there to undo that which has
been done? And, come to that, how will they know that it needs to be
done (as
individuals) and start the "undoing" process going?
Before you say "no smoke without fire", consider the link in Peter
Andrews's reply to dazed that goes to The Times Online, where it appears
that at least some of Operation Ore's evidence is deeply flawed. It
could mean "there but for the grace of god go we" if we use the wrong
payment processor online.
