Samsung Recent Security Incident

I always find it curious that allegedly Swedish people on HN post this sentiment over and over, but then never link to their own personal information.

Why not share, if it's so harmless? Isn't that the point you're trying to make?

I'm not Swedish, but a friend of mine showed me a website for it. Here is a random example of a person who lives in Täby, Sweden:

https://www.ratsit.se/19290708-Bertil_Thomas_Andersson_Taby/...

> Bertil Thomas Andersson - 1929-07-08 (93 years old) - Address: Lyktgränd 2 lgh 1706, 183 36 Täby, phone number 070-208 35 86

The website also adds information about income:

> (machine translation) In Täby, Bertil Thomas Andersson's home municipality, there are 5218 income millionaires. The proportion of people with payment notes in his postcode 183 36 is 7.3% and the average income is 295 679 SEK ($27,378) per year.

If the person runs any companies, that would be visible as well.

All of this is public information, for each individual and company in Sweden (except the ones that have requested to not be visible, or are protected)

Maybe they don’t want their identity and their opinions to be linked.
