Yeh, they looked into that when "Hunterson A" was shutdown.
But having an American Nuclear Sub base a few miles further up the coast, they idea was quickly shutdown for some reason.

Think their was not the "commercial need" at the time. (Chernobyl took the wind out of the "More Nuclear near Mass Center's of population" movement rather quickly, and Fukushima was the nail on the coffin for another reactor house.)

Hey!
  I resemble that remark...(Ayrshire born and only slightly mutant).

P.S.
F.Y.I.
I Live a couple of miles form the Reactor.
They were told YEARS ago once "Hunterson A" was shutdown, to also shutdown "B" earlier than planned.

Yeh we're planning a live reenactment of the Chernobyl series in real-time,

Most Americans think Russians have Scottish accents anyway... :D

great.. :(
If that's proved to be the case... Just need to find out where we register for the class action... ;)

Thanks.

Think most institutions now are using SSN's as a "uniquely identifying" index.
So it's a quick and dirty way for EquiFax to check multiple sources to see what pops up rather than waste time sending "name, location, DoB, Last known addresses, current address" etc...etc... when grabbing data from different sources (then you get into the bother of typos and slightly wrong data entered giving wrong results causing more manpower to find and fix those errors, or just ignore it and give the person a sub 100 credit score when it should be close to 700)

Are we sure it was ONLY US data/personal information that was leaked?

Personally I would not be in any way surprised, if it's uncovered in a few weeks time, that personal information from other countries was also in the leak.

"Learning to code" is actually a by-product of this endeavour NOT the main focus.

It's about Problem solving skills.

Give a group of kids a Problem to solve and the tools required to find a solution.

This can be in any medium you like, for example give them a pile of wood, rope and woodworking tools and tell them to make a working trebuchet.
It's just that it's cheaper and safer to use electronics and coding rather than Middle-age siege weapons!

...it's an f*ckin' undocumented feature!

And is the main reason Westminster wants to get the UK out of the ECHR so it can make laws like this legal.

Never underestimate the laziness of a person with a smartphone!

Probably thought it was one of their bit-torrent clients..

Even evil hackers require an extensive porn collection to do their job...

Just make it more complicated.
