    Anecdotal, but last night I got half a dozen pings on my banking app asking me to authorise transactions for thousands of rupees 🤨

    Had to cancel the card

    Won’t really matter if all those 815 million can barely make an income.

    That’s more than half of the Indian population. Catastrophic if true.

      The data leak is of AADHAR database. Which is a proof of identity that is required by everyone to avail government services. It is even used for SIM registration and opening bank account.

      Government has been recently trying to link Voter IDs to AADHAR. It is already linked to Tax Account called PAN.

      It has been turned it to a surveillance tool and this leak can be huge if true.

      Is there anyone left in India who would have personal information to steal after this?
