The Crazy Ass Leftist Morons on the Jan 6 Show Trial Committee released 2000 social security numbers

Cheney and Thompson and the rest of the crazy ass left's morons on the Jan 6 Show trial committee "made public nearly 2,000 Social Security numbers belonging to high-profile individuals who visited the White House in December 2020".

Private information of at least three GOP governors, members of Trump's cabinet and people who testified to the Jan. 6 committee was released

Kristi Noem: My lawyers have asked the White House, the US Nat Archives, and Bennie G Thompson which of them is responsible for leaking the Social Security Numbers of me, my husband, my 3 kids, and my son-in-law.

What specific measures and remedies will be taken to protect our identities?

That would be the GPO

the GPO claims its not responsible for editing/redacting data provided.


"After the leak was discovered, the spreadsheet containing the information was taken down from the website where the committee's documents were made available. A GPO spokesman told the Post that the office "does not edit or alter materials provided by Congress for publication." The records were removed as a "temporary measure" while GPO scans other documents for personally identifiable information, the spokesman said."

Exactly. I suspected some of the leftists here would try to dismiss or make an excuse for this. Gristle did not disappoint. This is 100% on Pelosi's Jan 6 show trial committee. It was their document and their responsibility. And you are correct, why the hell were they collecting social security numbers to begin with

i'm sure Adam Schiff, the most "trust worthy" liar in Congressional history will explain it.


bahahhaaaa

TWK, I recommend you read up on the GPO's PII Privacy Program, policies and responsibiiities.

The Superintendent of Public Documents has a policy in place (effective since 2020) requiring action to proactively redact PII that GPO discovered in or being prepared for publication.

The GPO has been authorized to redact SSN's from documents it publishes since 2008

Activities
Headquartered in Washington, DC, with
a total employment of approximately
2,500, GPO is responsible for the
production and distribution of
information products and services for all
three branches of the Federal
Government. GPO is the Federal
Government’s primary centralized
resource for gathering, cataloging,
producing, providing, authenticating,
and preserving published information in
all its forms. GPO’s 1.5-million-squarefoot
complex is the largest information
processing, printing, and distribution
facility in the world.


While many of our Nation’s most
important products, such as the
Congressional Record and Federal
Register, are produced at GPO’s main
plant, the majority of the Government’s
printing needs are met through a longstanding
partnership with America’s
printing industry. GPO procures between
600 and 1,000 print-related projects a
day through private sector vendors.




so the above straight from their us gov site indicates they are responsible. so why the DA NILE?



finger pointing isn't going to get them off the hook for what appears to be a massive fuck up of publishing clearly sensitive data. don't these dummies proof read anything?



i'd still like to know why the committee needed such data in the first place.

I agree. And it's a valid question

Redaction of Personally Identifiable Information

For content within GovInfo, it is the authoring agency’s responsibility to ensure there is no PII in their public information. Redaction is an option some government authors may choose to remove PII in publications that are already publicly available. For this reason, it is possible to come across some redacted content in GovInfo. Agencies may have different criteria for determining what PII is. Should high-impact PII be discovered in GovInfo it will be redacted in accordance with Superintendent of Documents Public Policy Statement 2019-

PII in Government Publications on govinfo

In accordance with Superintendent Public Policy Statement 2019-2 Redaction of Personally Identifiable Information from GPO’s System of Online Access by the Superintendent of Documents, GPO redacts high-impact PII from publicly accessible files in GPO’s system of online access, govinfo. If you discover PII in a publication (other than United States Courts Opinions collection) on govinfo, please let us know by submitting an askGPO inquiry under the category govinfo.gov question

It's a circular logic clown show where they follow OMB and NIST best practices but also claim they're not responsible or subject to certain laws
