Would it be possible to spread so much noise that data like this becomes useless? Could an LLM be used to help here?

Let us know how it works out. It's great in theory to stick to your principles but taking on the government in that way is almost certainly a losing battle. There are better ways to bring about change.
Not sure the French of all people need lectures on bringing about change and taking on the government.

It all starts by noticing that there is something odd about the way governments are trying to structure things, and then raising awareness about it. There might be better ways to bring about change, but if you don't say what they are then that doesn't help much.

Penalties don't work for government agencies. Taxpayers would pay for it and it doesn't act as an incentive. The way to fix it is to empower one government agency to do aggressive pentesting against every other agency, hospitals, banks, infrastructure, and big corporations, with salaries matching the private sector. Impose a legally-enforced deadline to fix any issues, with a fine (for private actors) or demotion of…
I agree with the premise that SSII audits are useless, but your solution sounds like bandaid on a cancer. The real solution solution is stop this surveillance machine madness! I understand that identity is required for property deeds and bank accounts for tax reasons and that should 100% not be online. But for the rest, it should be entirely outlawed to collect personal information beyond what's necessary for the ser…

> the data stolen in the breach could include full names, dates and places of birth, mailing and email addresses, and phone numbers on an undisclosed number of citizens Nothing really new here sadly, this information about me have leaked half a dozen of times in the past 2-3 years or so. These things will never change if the only penalty the company/agency gets is "send a message to your users saying you are sorry an…
Or maybe the government should not require companies to KYC you for every little stupid thing or action you do in this world. What happened to requiring only the information that's actually required? Why do I need to be KYCd in the systems when buying banana, ordering delivery, etc. Because of the inevitable breaches and leaks - KYC is the illicit activity. The selling point of KYC was preventing fraud and money laun…

> Or maybe the government should not require companies to KYC you for every little stupid thing Actually.... Say what you like about the French today, but one good thing they have is an electronic service[1] where you can generate single-use KYC ID: - That only discloses minimum information required - For a specific recipient organisation - For a specific duration - For a specific use-case by that organisation More c…

It seems to me we must move away from worrying about ransomware, data breach, data protection as that ship has already sailed and everyone's PII has already been stolen. We should think of how to verify people's identities online (for things like government benefits etc). I have heard of the Dutch and the Japanese using national digital identity systems although I am unclear how they work. India is doing biometrics.…
Here's my home address btw, super easy to find if you know my name.
DoB is on there too, who I live with, which door in the building, if I have a car, a dog or contract phone.. You can even pay a small fee and get an extract of the income register to see how much I earn.

Yet somehow it seems to work.
