Identity Theft Test - a gateway to profiling
I am so impressed with the designed online Identity Theft Self-Assessment Test that was devised by the Norwegian Data Inspectorate. Do attempt the test HERE. Identity theft could happen everywhere, whether online and offline. It's a gateway to profiling the authencity of a person/user/pseudonym and any parties who are deemed to be an under cover person. Zooming into the lens of an RFID environment, I am unsure whether the test would provide the necessary controls in view of the Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PeTs). Maybe it is a different element altogether. Nevertheless, it is best to recommend this test to consumers and customers of all industries (via their websites), especially service-based and consumer-based businesses. Then, it would provide added value, useful diffusion and dissemination so that the message will reach them ideally well.
