The current UK government in a nutshell right now:

Identity documents submitted to our vendor partners are deleted quickly— in most cases, immediately after age confirmation.

Define "quickly" and why is it not always immediately after confirmation?

[–] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 27 points 3 days ago

quickly as in never and then leaked because they secured it with the digital equivelent of a wet paper bag left outside.

Make sure to email their support team and tell them that you left and why, they gotta have records that this shit will not be tolerated!

It’s been almost 2 decades but I guess I’m a teenager again ?🤷 Because I ain’t uploading shit to discord.

Removed discord from all devices i own.

Bet nobody else will and after all this will be a huge success and the children finally will be safe

[–] Dilligentincubus@piefed.ca 57 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's not even that it got leaked, it's the fact that it's data they said they didn't have. Screw em!

[–] schema@lemmy.world 22 points 3 days ago

Yep. Just confirms once more that a company's word means absolutely nothing.

[–] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 74 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (5 children)

Doubt.

"Quick deletion: Identity documents submitted to our vendor partners are deleted quickly - in most cases, immediately after age confirmation."

[–] skip0110@lemmy.zip 75 points 3 days ago

Translation: our vendors have no idea where this data goes. If they can’t find it, it’s deleted, right?

[–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 63 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And this is why generic EULAs should be heavily regulated, and allowed to be negotiated like any other contract. Allow me to pencil in a “you’ll allow me to uniquely watermark the scan of my ID so it can be traced back to this specific request, and agree to pay me $500M if that scan is ever included in a data breach or sold to additional third-party vendors” clause.

Oh, Discord doesn’t want to agree to that? Gee, if the company is deleting everything immediately and there’s no risk of a leak/intentional sale, what’s the harm in including it? How’s the saying go? Something about “if you have nothing to hide”?

[–] jaded_genie@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago

Unironically the solution here. We need a bit of a negotiation option. Some entity, I don’t know, the EU or other larger regulatory bodies need to force that one down their throat

[–] Lembot_0006@programming.dev 41 points 3 days ago (2 children)

20 years is "quick" enough. 5 is "immediately".

[–] red_tomato@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Pretty much an instant on a cosmic timescale

Maybe deleted by discord immediately. Not their vendor partners though since that’s what happened last time data was leaked.

[–] REDACTED@infosec.pub 19 points 3 days ago

"In most cases"

So, bots?

[–] FisherOfSaints@lemmy.world 49 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If you want to protect the children get rid of the billionaires

[–] juslemmybee@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

KYC is a trap.

Always was, always will be.

If you think "I have nothing to hide because I'm not a criminal", I urge you to reconsider before history repeats itself and proves you wrong.

[–] ThatGuyNamedZeus@feddit.org 19 points 3 days ago

"last year" doesn't really do it justice They had tons of data breaches last year, the really bad one was after some places forced people to upload their IDs

[–] FuCensorship@lemmy.today 25 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Fuck them, fuck them all.

Personal ID to use a shart app? Out of your damn minds.

I guess younger generations will slowly accept this type of crap...

One good use for AI would be to generate IDs real enough to pass these checks & stock invasive databases with slop

[–] fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 14 points 3 days ago

I support this. Fake IDs are morally good

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Except AI is not capable of simple tasks let alone this.

[–] Xoriff@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Really? Generating real-looking faces has been doable for years now. MS paint copy/paste over an actual ID with the letters/numbers scrambled seems like child's play.

(Not that I would ever publicly condone ID fraud. That would be a terrible thing)

edit: oh. To do it en mass to fuck up their databases. Yeah that's fair. For a one-off: easily doable. At scale... Fair point

I'm so certain you will delete the id immediately after I send it that, after carefully considering it, I deemed it a waste of time: if you are deleting my ID immediately, the time spent on sending it is better used on something more useful, like taking a dump.

[–] sommerset@thelemmy.club 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Fuckers.
Just got my debit card stolen.
I only use it on frontier and Costco. But I'm sure it's frontier who leaked it again

They got a new CEO in April 2025, look him up.

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

Or the women on the TEA app. Sure worked out for them.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 16 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

No they don’t. They need it to definitively link your data between each of the sites you frequent.

That and your phone number. To be fair, the phone number thing does most of the legwork.
