      The issue with that is whether Digital ID will be a number permanently tied to a person like a SSN or a reusable one like an IRS tax pin, and whether ID documents used to verify Digital ID will be permanently stored and vulnerable to hack. Digital ID reduces exposure of ones SSN/SIN and photo ID when doing things that would otherwise require them but itself could be a goldmine for hackers.

If it is not in my hands then I am vulnerable to others. 365 now is also the source of program updates that is all for a chunky fee. The pension does not take into account that to even get pension credit you have to do it on-line using a computer (that you can't afford) with broadband connection (that you can't afford). Without pension credit I can't get the winter fuel payment that prevents me from choosing to eat or heat but the expectation is that I will always be connected, whatever the cost.

      Always and always use 2 factor authentication for all accounts, this is where you receive a txt or authenticator code to confirm your identity. Always keep your computer up to date, or your phone up to date. Take note security updates are limited, for example Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates next year.

      Lots of lessons for people to learn. Never give your details to anyone unless absolutely necessary. I'm talking about silly things like supermarket clubcards and such like, you are giving them your details, and by signing up, you are giving them permission to use your details for whatever reason. Details are a valuable commodity these days. A simple example of not giving my details the other week for me, needed a new freezer, went to a Currys. Paid cash, then the sales person asked for my address and email. Told him nicely NO. Why would you want them I enquired? Oh just for the database he replied. I said to him, would you tell me where you live etc? He said no, I said exactly, so why should I? Always be aware.

    Hey folks, let's take a deep breath about this NPD breach. The headlines are scary, but here's what you need to know:
    1. It's NOT 3 billion people affected. That's just the number of data lines. The real number is about 292 million individuals.
    2. A lot of the data is junk. Only 51% of the exposed SSNs have enough quality to pose any real risk.
    3. The data is super old. Most people affected were born between 1950-1970. There's very little recent data.
    4. Some birthdates in the breach are in the future! That shows how unreliable a lot of this data is.
    5. Many records are for deceased individuals.
    So while it's still a big deal, it's not as bad as the headlines make it sound. Stay vigilant, but don't panic!

      Yes, it's a great pity he did this video.. I have always admired Daniel but once my faith is lost, it's lost for good.. I won't be watching his channels any more.. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    Shouldn't this video be clearly labeled as sponsored content? Too many of the channels I've subscribed to for years are suddenly cashing in and pumping sales videos disguised as information. It's your own reputation you are destroying.

    You didn't seem that fussed about privacy law when mentioning profiling in relation to cookies and similar technologies, as you at least implied you thought it was pointless.

    So we've improved modern life by making things digital....
    So if you want to steal 20,000 people's information.. you can carry it on a flash drive...
    and that's security?
    I though my stuff was more secure when to steal 20,000 people's files meant breaking into a facility and stealing 20,000 files from a bunch of shelves.
    Somehow.. that actually felt more secure.

    Great advice. Trouble is the banks are still living in the 90's and all the ones I have for example don't use 2FA which is a SHAMEFUL lack of responsibility regarding the security of people's accounts.
