@C7RKY@PaulbernalUK Not wrong: unfocused. My take with many links here: https://theconversation.com/outdated-laws-put-your-health-data-in-jeopardy-22465 …. On anonymisation NHS know their stuff.1 reply 1 retweet 0 likes -

@CyberSecKent@PaulbernalUK That's a fascinating piece, thank you. So if NHS know data can be de-anonymised, why hand over raw data at cost?3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@C7RKY@PaulbernalUK (3/3) so combining those with GP appointments of pseudonymised records would still de-anonymise fully.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@PaulbernalUK @cyberseckent I'd heard of it being done, but never seen that kind of detail - thanks Paul.
