The NHS have not properly funded IT for decades. Any big numbers you see, they all go to consultants and contractors who don't produce much for the money they're getting.

[@CedroCron]

It boggles my mind how they will cut corners, spend a ton on consultants instead who give bad advice, it all goes wrong, so they pay a ton more for investigations and to consultants to come up with a plan for preventing it from happening in future, then proceed to cut corners again within 10 years and the cycle repeats. It's lunacy and it happens all over the place. I'm thinking I need to get into the consultant business. It seems they are the only ones eating like kings today without actually doing anything properly!

I've been watching this channel for almost 2 years and some of the most comprehensive consumer privacy information is reported here. How does this channel not have at least a quarter mil subs by now?? 😮

Privacy is still an overlooked topic in the public sphere

Someday we hope!!

Thanks again ❤

Regarding Meta wanted to train its AI on Facebook and Instagram posts. I sent in two objections yesterday, on for Facebook and one for Instagram. It took only 15 seconds for Meta to accept my objections not to train on my Instagram data and 1 minute to accept my objection on my Facebook data. So It was most probably AI itself who answered, not a person. You have to choose the correct words. E.g. "It is my private data", "I do not want AI to be trained on my data" etc. And...

3:58 here is my input to this story, strangely the recent event in the UK has a strange coincidence of being perfectly time to my son’s planned surgery that was 2 weeks in advance. On this same day we were told that surgery was postponed due to an unrealistic -”Cover Story”- telling us something along the lines of an surging influx of incoming patients overwhelming the facility’s E.R. medical response staff and the Hospital was over its capacity to deliver quality medical care with confidence. But this wasn’t in the UK, this was in Sweden.🇸🇪

I would appreciate if you scrolled those articles as you are reading them. Otherwise I am glad Firefox came to senses. It would be very disappointing learning it was giving into the dictatorship.

Thanks

From what i understand (and i may be wrong), the attack only affected the london blood banks, they are a separate entity, but connected to the hospitals, this meant that the hospitals couldn't request blood for operations, and is why they have been asking donors to give blood, especially the rare or universal groups
The NHS had an attack several years ago, which i am guessing they didn't routinely reboot the PC's to get security updates, i'm also told there are still many XP and win 7 systems out there.

As a Swiss, i'm always very proud to see me flag! Didn't know that British Hospitals are Swiss.

Dope channel yo. Insta sub. Maybe add a bit of padding between the jumping back and forth between news items. Need a sec to digest! haha

I guess MasterCard is finished. As for selling drivers patterns, that is off the scale evil, so don't allow the electronics in our car to be given identities of the drivers.

Err… people _have died_ as a result of data breaches. There’s a somewhat unwritten law of non-disclosure when it comes to health care blunders where the evidence is buried, and that’s why you done get to hear of it.
Also, I’m tired of telling people they’re putting themselves and others at risk, so tired I almost can’t bear it.

RIP 🤷
