@SalingerPrivacy not slagging anybody off. Just providing facts. The article suggested ABS hashing easy to decode. Not true
Maybe get your facts straight before slagging others off @BenPhillips_ANUhttps://twitter.com/SalingerPrivacy/status/762264513861201920 …

@BenPhillips_ANU@BernardKeane Nor did I say SLKs/hashes could be decoded. I said they are used to link data. It's the linking I object to. -
most would read article as suggesting any name can easily be deduced. Infinite number of codes.

@BenPhillips_ANU@BernardKeane Not what I intended. Have clarified that one sentence. My concern is use for linking, not decoding an SLK -
cheers Anna

Also add, the hash key is not unique to 24m Australians. Many duplicates for different names.

apparently unqualified Census defence reflective of ANU 'Centre for Social Research and Methods', or personal

just an interest in quality data and good policy rather than misinformation
-
utility of data can't ever occlude research ethics standards, though: many ways to critique ABS on those.
-
separate matter to a discussion of SLK vs actual anonymising names through hashing as used by credit cards etc
-
I see, so just a narrow, technical point of critique, not to do with broader problems, data-linking etc.. Ok

how much can one fit in a tweet?!
