Illegal Data Release Massachusetts

[Broc]

Ruger 10/22, Remington 870 and Smith and Wesson M&P Shield

Interesting.

I looked for an ID on a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range and no dice.

Just what you see pal

Go electric they said. Go online they said. It will make transactions easier, safer, with fewer errors they said. What could go wrong they said. Your data is safe with us.
Some days I can really identify with the Luddites.

Butlerian Jihad, FTW!

Fear is the mind killer.

Also lobotomies, but yes.

This happened because Lexington installed a new smart meter that was hacked, through it they accessed the owners network that was VPN to the State's Network and found the list.

Then the house caught on fire.

Sadly that meter burned the home to ashes. Or potentially could have. Or it heard the homeowner boning by the meter.

Friends of mine live in “The Constitution State”. There are reasons sometimes.

Gotta admit that i like GA’s attitude/laws re private sales. I’ve bought, sold and traded without state involvement or paperwork.

That's how it should be.

So when did the state publish this online anyway? Curious how long it’s been made public

If it had been live before today, surely the NES hivemind would have noticed. Plus, the state would have leaked it to their lemmings at the Glob post-haste.

This is where @Zappa says dupe and posts his thread from 10 minutes before this one

I just realized journalists could have a field day with this. "DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE 963 ASSAULT RIFLES IN YOUR TOWN? WHY RESIDENTS CAN NO LONGER TRUST THEIR NEIGHBORS"

That’s probably the point of them having this info out there

Adobe Reader

Thank you mine says adobe, acrobat reader, and it just doesn’t seem to work. your supposed be able to read for free and the other features cost more.

I’ll figure it out I just haven’t had a computer in a while the wife’s doesn’t work

 

[MGnoob]

What would be a good comparison to convince people that this data release is wrong.

If you were to pick another fundamental civil right, and expose personal data (slightly hidden) regarding that right, what would that be?

What religion a person in town follows given a driver's ID? What books a person in town owns based on driver's ID?

Sexual orientation.
HIV status… HIV status is supposed to be pretty well protected but imagine they posted one that said oh in this area code this is how much aids there are… That might actually be some useful information

I know a guy who sold a gun to another. I know the towns they live in and was able to find the transaction from that. I now have both their IDs, and can subsequently see their collections.

You can pretty quickly parse this and play six degrees of NES. Kinda fun actually.

I dunno. All of the files say last updated January 2022….I went on the wayback machine archive website and can only go back to October 2022 but they were there then. Probably been there since January 2022. Amazing it took this long for someone to notice.

 

[G4Y4HK]

Whens the deadline for us to ReGiStER our preban mags? lol

 

[Machines]

I have a friend in town whose birthday I know, I know he owns a Glock, and I know he got his license shortly before I got mine. With that info I was able to find his purchase records. This is ridiculous.

 

[Reptile]

Somebody can use the Birthday and town data to match up with actual people and post a new file on the internet with all their guns and their address.

This is the biggest data leak in US gun history.

People complained when they were outed for having a license but now we can extrapolate names, addresses, and inventories.

The woke hackers are going to have fun with this.

 

[tinhorn]

Looks like about 12% of my friends and neighbors own firearms, compared to 15% (lowest in the nation) statewide. Time to up your game, pussies. But there are 13 machine gun licenses. Hahahaha! Crazy fukcers.

I had to fill out a personal property form for a mini fridge and some other office things and I wrote phase plasma rifle in 40 W range and got everybody to sign off on it… If they let me go, I’m gonna be expecting them to produce my phased plasma rifle

 

[Machines]

To the guy with two M60s, are you looking for a girlfriend? I mean I'm a guy but love conquers all. We'll make it work.

 

[Live-a-Little]

This literally just put every gun owner and their families in Massachusetts in danger. Every criminal that is looking to steal firearms now has an itemized shopping list. Would not surprise me in the least if this brought in criminals from outside MA.

 

[HARRYM]

Apologies if asked and answered already.

When exactly did the leak of this information take place?

Who is in charge of the agency that leaked the data?

Thanks

My dog is small so his kevlar vest will not be as expensive as one for a GSD.

f*** Kevlar…I’m not taking any chances!!

 

[Amputee Marksman]

By now you have gone through the data and realize that I bought an M&P Pistol at Cabela's a long time ago before I discovered NES and starrted down the path to enlightenment. I ask for forgiveness from @one-eyed Jack the almighty caretaker of the most sacred Mill. Please don't kick me out of the club and ban me from the most sacred Mill for my tansgression.

Didn’t even think of this

Technically they are not AW’s if you follow the assault weapons ban and neuter them

 

[safetyfirst2125]

That's horrible, and I suspect they'll get away with it.
Now that there's attention brought to the data, no doubt Everytown and their pet "journalists" will use it for all sort of visualizations and to draw misleading conclusions or just drum up fear about "superowners".


From which you can then locate the ID of anybody you did a "private" transaction with.

Almost want to feed the data into a graph theory tool, see what patterns it can derive.

You can bet that’s already been done
