http://www.hackinthebox.org/article.php?sid=4926 Privacy group says Credit Bureaus are selling YOUR personal records to IRS, FBI. from L33tdawg Thu, Jan 17 @ 01:14 PM (Reads: 34) Source: PCWorld The Electronic Privacy Information Center has filed a lawsuit seeking the release of information involving the purchase of individuals' private information by U.S. government agencies from companies that sell personal data. In a statement yesterday, the Washington-based privacy advocacy group said it brought suit under the Freedom of Information Act after several agencies under the Departments of the Treasury and Justice failed to provide EPIC with information about contracts with private profiling companies. Those companies, most notably ChoicePoint Asset in Alpharetta, Georgia, and Experian, the Orange, California-based subsidiary of GUS, sell information on U.S. citizens, including credit information, property records, state motor vehicle records, and marriage and divorce data, to these agencies, the group said. ------------------------ Yahoo!
