I am sorry to hear that. When my info was stolen, I felt anger and betrayal by the company that was supposed to keep my info safe. It sucks.

If your SSN is part of stolen information, you should freeze your credit and tell anyone else affected to do so. If you need to get a background check you need to unfreeze your credit. It's annoying but completely worth it so people can't open accounts in your name.

The data stolen from CDHE is significant, impacting the following students, past students, and teachers who:

  • Attended a public institution of higher education in Colorado between 2007-2020.
  • Attended a Colorado public high school between 2004-2020.
  • Had a Colorado K-12 public school educator license between 2010-2014.
  • Participated in the Dependent Tuition Assistance Program from 2009-2013.
  • Participated in Colorado Department of Education's Adult Education Initiatives programs between 2013-2017.
  • Obtained a GED between 2007-2011 may be impacted by this incident.

The stolen information includes full names, social security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, proof of addresses (statements/bills), photocopies of government IDs, and for some, police reports or complaints regarding identity theft.

If you are affected, please freeze your credit through the website of the three major credit reporting agencies. Freezing is free but they might spam you. Also if you need to do something that require a credit check, you have to plan ahead and unfreeze your credit. All three services can refreeze your credit after you specify a time frame.

Can you elaborate on what you mean? Is this criticism on my posts?

Guardio’s Email Protection has detected a sophisticated email phishing campaign exploiting a 0-day vulnerability in Salesforce’s legitimate email services and SMTP servers. Guardio Labs’ research team has uncovered an actively exploited vulnerability enabling threat actors to craft targeted phishing emails under the Salesforce domain and infrastructure. Those phishing campaigns cleverly evade conventional detection methods by chaining the Salesforce vulnerability and legacy quirks in Facebook’s web games platform. Guardio Labs has disclosed these findings and worked with Salesforce and Meta to close the vulnerabilities and misuse.

For Windows, considering how much data is sent back to Microsoft, using Windows contributes in it's own way.

Overture says they are providing data. What ever is contributed to OSM is up to the OSMF, not Overture.

The fun of BBS is the lack of privacy. You have to connect with your telephone number to someone else's phone number. If you thought your IP addresses was important to keep safe, imagine your phone number.

I'm half joking. I'm not sure but servers didn't have some caller ID program. I think it would show up on the phone bill though.

i've heard both so I checked.

From Wikipedia:

A bulletin board system (BBS), also called a computer bulletin board service (CBBS),[1] is a computer server running software that allows users to connect to the system using a terminal program.

So yes, you are correct.

This does use OpenStreetMap. It adds other public data from other sources.

Out of the four layers Overture Maps provides, th ey use OpenStreetMap for the Transportation and Building layers.

I hope the cash he got from banks is backed by his stocks in Tesla. But what do I know, look what happened to Silicon Valley Bank. Banks aren't smarter in investing than the rest of us apparently.
