The ID Check Company That Leaked 153 Million Licenses https://techlore.tv/videos/watch/2da76e4b-a136-42ae-ba03-ab7d18fc0ef5 An ID-verification company, IDScan.net, appears to have leaked scans of 153 million driver's licenses, then sold on a dark-web market called Nexus. This week I break down why this breach is the perfect example of everything wrong with ID uploads, plus Chrome officially pulling uBlock Origin and AdGuard from the Web Store, California's age-verification bill carving out a Linux exemption, and Florida and Texas stepping back from Flock license-plate readers, plus the usual data breaches, threats, and open-source updates. 🔗 SOURCES & LINKS • Sources, Podcast & Shownotes: https://techlore.tech/153-million-drivers-licenses-for-sale-plus-chrome-kills-ublock-origin-texas-kicks-out-flock/ 🔎 RELATED VIDEOS https://youtu.be/rTlHMyzLuAM https://youtu.be/hOU7A1x67o8 https://youtu.be/XCzVQKLBkhM 📨 Stay ahead of the news without doom-scrolling.

Havind address in the driver's licence is very odd to me as a European, though. Addresses may change often, driver's licence is usually the same for decades!
