June 30, 2021 - #TNPDSHack. This is literal Prabha wine shop level hack. Hacker had access for full 15 days to exfiltrate data. - and he did. Per person data (UID, Ration card number, Mobile etc - 0.36p). 0 Response from state.

Though #SFDB was conceptualised in the previous regime, the 2021 budget gave legitimacy under this government, even after a large #TNPDSHack

The entire #TNPDSHack (also timed just before #SFDB tender process) - is example of cyber security risk turning real. But that didn't stop the breaucracy from learning lessons.
#SFDB too will get breached. Because - it already happened in Andhra Pradesh.

Re upping the 2021 #TNPDSHack thread as #SFDB and #Makkal 2.0 is announced. #TamilNadu #Dataleak #Aadhaar
3. State Family Database #SFDB & privacy intrusion ( #TNPDSHack / leak )
SFDB is a live / auto-updating 360 degree profiling database on the population, upgraded version of #SRDH - which union govt claimed was destroyed during #Aadhaar case hearing.
Lets divide into
1. Ideological issues on Aadhaar / Targetted subsidy
2. Privatisation of power sector with identity linked consumption data
3. State Family Database #SFDB & privacy intrusion ( #TNPDSHack / leak )
4. Political harms. (with Andhra Pradesh House committee report)
In July 2021, #TNPDSHack led to entire data of Tamilnadu's 6.5 Crore residents, including #Aadhaar, #MakkalNumber, Mobile number, family data was sold for $3200 - @ 0.36p / resident. #DataBrokers
@CMOTamilnadu @TNeGA_Official actively denied the entire data leak.

Our deep dive into India’s prolific data-broking industry. For less than Rs 5,000, you can buy millions and millions of sensitive customer data. If you can think of the target group, you could find a database on sale via the open web. https://t.co/7NtEAZMZ3g
Post now updated - 65M #Aadhaar, 66.3 M #MakkalNumber and 220M lines of data. Note that this is < 90% data as #TNPDS has 67.6M #Aadhaar and 68.1 beneficiaries.
Collective failure of @UIDAI @CMOTamilnadu in letting this continue for 2 weeks and losing the entire database

The economic advisory council that was the blind to #TNPDSHack Please leak/sell everyone's healthcare data and claim economic advisory council has strongly backed.
Were the economic advisory council appraised of the #TNPDSHack and @TNeGA_Official non-response @ptrmadurai ?
Tamil Nadu Finance Minister Palanivel Thiaga Rajan says Chief Minister Economic Advisory Council has strongly backed State government initiatives in data centric governance. @THChennai
@WriterRavikumar @mkstalin Fully agree, the same also should be applicable for @TNeGA_Official - https://t.co/SKKoMjBWF4
This is deeply concerning especially after a wholesale leak of #TNPDSHack and complete silence by @ITTamilnadu #SaveOurPrivacy
Tamil Nadu government will put in place a data-driven decision support system through “data purity & governance”. All depts. asked to share data with TNeGA to plan, implement & execute of govt. schemes to ensure efficient & transparent service delivery to people acc. to a G.O.

Transparent service delivery can happen only when the code that powers the infrastructure and people who run the systems are transparent @neerajmittalias
Where is the report on #TNPDSHack ?

Data "purity" is worse than Caste "purity". Stop doing anything with data, till you understand cyber, law. Don't be an algorthimic goverenment.
Where is the whitepaper on #TNPDSHack ?
Tamil Nadu government plans a data-driven decision support system through "data purity and data governance". Details here. (1/2)

Special attn @ptrmadurai @MinisterMano - After #TNPDSHack attack, now a malware attack encrypting files. Tamil Nadu desperately needs this.
Comprehensive view of beneficiaries is 360 degree #surveillance database #SFDB.
#DigitalTamilNadu has to also be accountable Tamilnadu. What has the state done till now on the #TNPDSHack losing the entire data of the state?
Databasing is against social justice @ptrmadurai

@CodeNDrive @RKRadhakrishn @digitaldutta There is nothing to be happy about another ID system. Especially- this government slept an entire fortnight losing the entire PDS database to #TNPDSHack https://t.co/7USVob1QZM - Ask the question - who benefited from #MakkalID and who is going to benefit from #SFDB, #HealthID etc
Because @AdmkFails spent ₹31.69 Crores in 2020-21 and @CMOTamilnadu will be spending ₹15.81 Crores, #TNPDSHack will not be spoken about as we will continue to fund surveillance via #SFDB. #TNBudget2021
