The group might like to be aware of this forthcoming data-mining
exercise, whereby your data will be extracted from your GP record
unless you opt out by the cut-off date. The entire thread, and the
links contained in them, are worth reading.


Providing personal data for a government data mining exercise is a
serious matter especially as it potentially breaches privacy


The system pseudo-anonymises your data by removing your name and the
first line of your address.

While that is wonderful, is that what is left is your NHS number, which
identifies you uniquely, and your post code, which can help locate you.

"Hey, look at this! There's someone in this street that's had an
abortion at 15, got genital herpes, been vaccinated against yellow
fever, had a broken engagement, and been divorced but shares the house
with the ex-partner. Not a ball-buster to work out who that is!"

but aren't
you the same Spike who completely fabricated quote in uk.politics.misc
and when asked about the misleading quote insisted it was real? How do we
know you're not crying wolf again?


Message-ID:


You would need to prove the quote was completely fabricated.
