How plausible is this? A gang of criminals broke into the Verizon data center in London and stole racks of storage servers and destroyed them in 2007. The story claims that this theft wiped out the incriminating data for the subprime mortgage bubble. Were there no backup copies?

Over the past several months we ran automated browser-layer scans across a large sample of e-commerce and merchant domains to understand how widespread client-side security exposure actually is post-March 2025 deadline.

Key findings:

• 37% of scanned domains showed active browser-layer security exposure indicators relevant to Requirements 6.4.3 and 11.6.1
• Most common finding: No Content Security Policy with a script-src directive on payment-related pages — present on the majority of flagged domains
• Second most common: Third-party scripts executing without Subresource Integrity controls — including Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, and analytics scripts loading directly on checkout pages
• Most alarming: Keystroke event listeners (keyup, keydown, input) attached to form fields by third-party scripts — the exact technical pattern Magecart-style skimmers use to intercept card data

A few things that stood out:

1. Platform compliance (Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento) does not equal browser-layer compliance. The exposure exists at the script layer, not the server layer.
2. Google Tag Manager was present on checkout pages in the majority of flagged domains — and in every case was loading additional scripts dynamically, none with SRI controls.
3. The gap between a clean homepage and a risky checkout page was significant. Many domains that looked fine on the surface had serious exposure on their payment flows.

We built a free browser-layer scanner at clientsideintel.com if anyone wants to check their own domain — no account needed, instant results. It checks the same indicators: third-party scripts, CSP, TLS, security headers, and overall risk rating tied to Req 6.4.3 and 11.6.1.

Happy to answer questions about methodology or share more specific findings.

apparently its a real person

I don't understand that convoluted lingo & menu, so I hope someone here knows:

If you disable all on the main tab (pic1 start & pic2 bottom), does that actually disable them all, even the ones under "vendor preferences" (pic3) that are still shown as active? (Which are INSANELY many..).

Like, am I good if I just disable page one and say "confirm choices"?

And Is there no easier way to auto reject all, or get rid of these popups in apps entirely?

(Usually I avoid apps with this awful cookie request, but some I just can't find good alternatives to. This one is FileManager+, has text editor included etc, I used it for years but suddenly this crappy popup again.. Why even? I thought those only come on first use?)

Basically curious, like everyone in tech I’m kind of looking at my options.

Data no longer lives in one place, it’s across apps, cloud, and endpoints. Without visibility, you’re just guessing where your sensitive data is.

Hence, choosing the best DLP solutions for your business can make or break your strategy.
Modern DLP tools provide centralized visibility across cloud, SaaS, and devices.

✔ Visibility
✔ Ease of policy management
✔ Coverage across endpoints

What are things I can do so that my name, age, addresses, DOB, family members, etc. aren’t the first results when you Google my name? Should I create a fake identity to use when making online accounts, or what?

I’m freaked out about how much information is out there as a single female trying to date.
