I love food reviews that have this sort of comment
"As we started eating our meals a friendly waiter put a bonus dish full of gravy on the table “for you to dip your chips in, if you want,” which was way too casual an announcement for such a specular, thick gravy that at least deserved a smoke machine and some sexy music"

Review: Two Nightingales sing the praises of Preston’s favourite food, game and cocktail bar

Hm ... mal wieder eine Firma, die Daten sammelt und bei der Nutzende vermutlich nicht *informiert* eingewilligt haben. Wann dreht man solchen Unternehmen endlich mal den Saft ab? Nach #Schrems VIII?
Und eine #Datenpanne ist ja, ähnlich wie eine "Sünde", eher eine Nachlässigkeit als Schlamperei – da kann man schon mal nachsichtig sein.

heise online · Gravy Analytics: Positionsdatensammler gibt Datenpanne zuBy Andreas Knobloch

Oh… #privacy where.. oh, wait .. 🥹

Massive breach at #location data seller: “Millions” of users affected

Like many other #data #brokers, #Gravy is a company you may never have heard of, but it almost certainly knows a lot about you if you’re a #US #citizen.

Gravy Analytics specializes in location intelligence, meaning it collects #sensitive #phone location and #behavior data.

One of the buyers is the US #government who increasingly circumvents the need to get a #warrant by simply buying what they want to know from a data broker. Ironic, given that the #FTC sued Gravy Analytics after saying it routinely collects sensitive phone location and behavior data without getting the #consent of #consumers.

And now, apparently, it’s Gravy Analytics’ turn to be #breached. According to 404 Media, #cybercriminals breached Gravy Analytics and stole a massive amount of data, including customer lists, information on the broader industry, and location data harvested from #smartphones which show peoples’ precise #movements.

The cybercriminals claim to have stolen 17TB of data and are threatening to publish the data. Considering the sensitivity of location data for some groups, this breach could potentially be just as significant as the National Public Data leak.

The whole ordeal, whether the data will be published or not, proves once again why data brokers should stop trading health and location data. 📊
