Passaic Housing Authority battles employee over data breach, rules on rent hikes

Posted on June 16, 2017 by Dissent

Nicholas Katzban reports:

An internal investigation by the Passaic Housing Authority has named employee Linda Colon as the suspected source of last month’s data breach, which the authority said compromised the personal information of 50 to 60 public housing residents.

But Colon has not been charged with any crime, and says the documents involved in the alleged leak are evidence in her lawsuit against the Housing Authority. She claims the authority failed to notify residents of rent increases in a timely manner, violating internal regulations and rules of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

    I love the idea, that I was raised with the IDEAL that everyone is Fair and Honest..
    I find it MORE as I see in cartoons, and everyone is a bad Guy, and the Good Guys, represented by GI JOE, cant kill anything..

    Cobra seems to have the World behind them, because they keep getting Lots of new materials After GI Joe destroys it..They have facilities around the world, and keep attacking GI Joe?? For all their materials they could take over 1/2 the world..you would think.

    GI JOE? I cant tell Where they get there materials, as they are supposed to be based in 1 country, with a few facilities around the world, and they keep loosing hardware to Cobra.. Can Cobra cant kill much either, as we have most of the same GI Joes as we did in the beginning..AND still GI Joe cant find or Kill off Cobra.
