Then let's move on to credit card details. You gave them to me for payment purposes in the course of doing normal business.
Months later, I discover that I can sell my stock of credit card information on the darknet for some nice extra income.
Should I be allowed to do that? What if it weren't credit card details but just postal addresses?
- jimmaswell 8y agoThe credit card example was already illegal by other, more targeted legislation. Nobody likes getting a lot of junk mail, but it's not the end of the world. I actually got my first credit card from a pre-approved offer found in junk mail.
- wilsonnb 8y agoYes, you should be able to do that, unless you are reasonably certain that the information might be used to commit credit card fraud/identity theft. If you think they might be used illegally, I believe there are already laws to charge you with that relate to facilitating a crime. If you don't think they will be used illegally, then what's the harm in selling them to someone else?
