How do you say "Oops!" in Norwegian?
Norway's national tax agency sent CDs containing personally identifiable information (PII) of four million Norwegians to media groups. (The story is here.)
Two numbers stick out in this story: Norway has just 4.6 million inhabitants, and that the CDs were sent to just nine groups. (It would be interesting to know how many send the CDs back, as the agency has asked them to do.)
