yeah these guys are nutters, as usual its "something thats going help you..." but the rest of that sentence is " ... be controlled ".

Woah, I am glad you did some digging. They can keep it for 130 years after your death? How is that even logical, when most records after 3/10 years is null. The medical field is a trip. Also, Dubai wants to become the world’s first blockchain-powered government by 2020 I didn't know, that is amazing!

Awesome post choo, no surprise there. I WANT MORE!!

Lol. I'll see what I can do.

They aren't keeping it for 130 years anymore apparently, and that was if the date of your death was unknown--otherwise it was 30 years.

I see a shit storm brewing on the horizon, thanks for the reminder :)

You're welcome.

This is news to me... disturbing news that is.
Excellent article as usual, very informative. And it's so great that you even included the process on how to opt out, I'll be referring this post to my friends.

Thanks choo for letting me know on time :).

Thank you! And that's 1 of 3 of my half written posts complete!

With these levels of information and quality, no wonder you don't write a lot of posts choo.
You should make smaller posts too from time to time... maybe something like ULOG ^_^.

Hahahaha. Ulogs. I HATE those things. Plus mine would be boring. I literally do the same thing every day unless I'm travelling.

Here's my ulog.
Get up check steemit. Work/do stuff on my computer. Crossfit. Yoga. Steemit/computery stuff. Bed. Occasionally I might venture out and get my legs waxed or pick up a package if I've done internet shopping, but that's pretty much it.

Whoa whoa! You hate it?! Actually I don't really know what ulog is, but I've seen a lot of people using the term.

I don't think yours would be boring though, since your daily routine doesn't involve eating at all, that's pretty unique no? Kehehe, forgive me for my bad sense of humour.

Lol. Whoops. You can throw breakfast, unch and dinner in there. They are boring as well though. I make one thing and eat it all week. I've eaten oatmeal for breakfast for like 5 years.

Thanks for raising this. Glad we get the option to opt out at least. Maybe they learned something when they compromised 100 years of data with that Census rubbish.

Oh yeah. That was shit. I was deliberately out of the country at the time so I avoided that.

At the moment everybody make a lot of noise about privacy and the General Data Protection Regulation that was intensified. Of course a bit of privacy is important. Especially on health issues, but on some things it's exaggerated. I work at a Data Recovery Company and i know that it's pretty important to preserve privacy. But people are revealing so much data on Facebook or other social networks so that i think the relation is a bit at risk.

Yeah, but people aren't putting their medical records on FB, etc. The whole Singapore hack for example, sounds like a nightmare. I would be really upset if I was one of those victims.

Thanks for this. I’ve shared it on my Facebook too and will opt out.

You're welcome. FB will shadow ban it. They did on mine. I had to type another message telling people to go to my page if they wanted to see it.

hah! Bugger.

I was going to share something about this myself after a friend sent me something on it. Glad you shared it, though, as you'll reach more.

Thanks. Sorry, if I took your idea. :(

Don't be. Like I said, you'll reach more people than me anyway.

I just heard about this a couple of days ago, only because a client back home mentioned it. Since being away from Oz, it's hard to keep up, ESPECIALLY when they do things like this with no official warning. I'm yet to opt out but it's now top of the list for tomorrow. They absolutely can't be trusted with this info. They've proven that time and time again.

I know. I wouldn't have known if it didn't show up in something in one of my emails. Glad i reminded you to look into it.
