Thanks for sharing! I'm curious about the exact dividing line between PII and non-PII. So if you know, could you clarify a detail?
Your phrasing was: "If the hashed password *is used as* a lookup key, that makes it a unique identifier, and it's PII."
If I take your wording literally, your saying that I could store everyone's SSN in a database, but as long as my system didn't attempt to use SSN as a unique identifier, the SSN doesn't count as PII.
But it seems unlikely that that's how you meant it.
- derekp7 6y ago"If A, then B" does not necessarily mean "If Not A, then Not B". Now if the first logical statement was "If, and only if A, then B", then the second logical statement would follow.
