Over Christmas break last year I got an email explaining that for an hour, personal information of some 30 computer science students was downloadable via the school's CS webpage. This personal information included everything... name, address, even so far as SSN. During this time, the information was viewed 14 times. The email goes on to say that I was one of the students whose information was shared. Thanks.
The thing that troubles me the most, aside from the unnecessary use of everyone's SSN, is the fact that it was the *CS* department that posted this information. If the computer guys can't get it right...?
