Nl: Not all victims of the GGD Covid data theft were informed

Posted on August 13, 2021 by Dissent

NL Times reports:

There are many more people whose data was leaked from the GGD in January than the 1,250 people the GGD reported, according to RTL Nieuws. Not all people whose data was stolen and possibly sold on the internet have been notified about what happened to their private information, the news outlet stated.

An export function allowed GGD employees to download lists of people who got tested for the coronavirus. At least two GGD call center employees were arrested for forwarding the sensitive information via messaging apps such as Telegram and Wickr.
