Did anyone get the full contents of the picture gallery from picture 1057 to the end one?
I tried but Adobe couldn't manage to download more than the first 5 or 6000 before crashing. Probably due to too much info on one pdf.Confucius say woman who sits on Judges knee gets honourable discharge0 -
Would it not have been better to not post here and report the whole thing to the ICO without the parking company being any the wiser?
The ICO would then have been able to look and see the full idiocy of the PC site? As it is, they have to take 3rd party evidence into account?Still rolling rolling rolling......

I disagree as they will be involved, and the breach happened no matter how its dressed up. It's not just ICO though its the dvla and bpa, so it's more than one line of attack if you will.When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you.

Thinking on a slightly different track, If all that was on there was the photos of vehicles then whats the problem?
If the phots have the vehicle+registered keeper information then i can see an issue, but as it is its just a collection of anonymous vehicles, just like you would see if you were there in person.
The cars are in a publicly accessable car park on public display whats the issue if the parking company whats to publish their photos online in the open then why fuss?From the Plain Language Commission:

Allowing ID cards, with photographs of the holders, signatures, dates and identifiable locations is wholly unacceptable.
The Data Protection Act, not to mention the Human Rights Act, establish clear rights of privacy. The fact that the photographs were taken in a public place, visible to a few dozen people who were there at the time, does not allow the Private Parking Company to publish them on the net for all 7+billion people of the world to see.Je suis Charlie0 -
The law in fact does allow anyone to publish photos that they take in a public place as there can be no reasonable expectation of privacy.Aaron_Aadvark wrote: »Allowing ID cards, with photographs of the holders, signatures, dates and identifiable locations is wholly unacceptable.
