@nkav There’s a argument that could be put that all of my listeners are the wrong kind.
I agree with @Steve_Lockstep here. That yarn was focused on technical security risks in response to arsehats. https://t.co/OHQ596C2Gi
Steve_Lockstep - the risk in #censusfail is not to me but whole sets of folks who may be exposed when data is reIDed by ABS’s “customers”. @stilgherrian

@brettrann And to say that makes me realise they don’t need names. There’s enough data in a Census record to re-identify most of them.
@brettrann I know they’re hashes, but of what, exactly, I don’t know. And when names and genders change, what then? Hash with other answers?
@semibogan @snare That said, if I had my life over I’d s/privacy/security/ through most of that column.

@darkhorse166 Sounds like a fascinating read, yes.
@darkhorse166 That is one very weird coincidence.
In Victorian times, London ran a Cat Census to find and fine households without adequate protection against rats and mice. #CensusFacts
I’m tempted to start making up som#CensusFactsts to see how far the disinformation spreads.
“When the Romans took over Judea in 6CE, the legate Publius Sulpicius Quirinius organised a census for tax purposes.”
“The Domesday Book was undertaken in 1086 CE by William I of England so that he could properly tax the land he had recently conquered.”
That is to say, a Census was about enforcing government powers, not “researchâ€. Hence the compulsion and penalties.
That was the Roman Census. In ancient Israel, God commands a per capita tax to be paid with the census in Exodus 30:11-16.
The Census began in Roman times to “track all adult males fit for military service†https://t.co/y8fuQIRDI5 https://t.co/RBuOoOs219
