"Privacy in Pakistan seems like a topic which you or most people would see and just click on some other link to watch or do something else ..."
says Adnan Jabbar; avery close friend and business think tank ; in his blog. One day, during conversation I got an invitation from an event management company for an upcom'n event. After fill'n the so call'd registration form of the event I didnt get any sort of 'Terms of Agreement for my Privacy Concerns' or any sort of 'Non Disclosure of Contact information' stuff ...
Ok i've some questions ..where does ma info go? Will it be sold/shar'd/or whatever to other fourth or fifth party to send me more nd more spam mails ?? How abt if i dnt want to share ma info ? How abt ma info gets updat'd/chang'd?
Quite amusingly, i got an email (a SPAM ofcourse) offer'n 3000 professional ('work'n'; seriously tht word ws mention'd in the mail :p) for some few Ks ...nd they gave a lil sample of the contact list ... nd i saw a familiar Spread sheet with most 'signature' fields of info gather'n ...
If you type in 'Pakistani' on Google, what you get on the Auto - Suggestion has 'Pakistani Girls Numbers' on 3rd number .... (yeah right) ... bt how come they get the contact details nd the so call'd directory gets fill'd day by day? (see how many Mark Suckerbags we have who will do anythng to get a chick's number)
This is also a wake up call to all the event management companies, they must have tht 'Non Disclosure of Information of participants' stuff ... ready nd implement'd ...cz i m gett'n more nd more spam messages day by day ..The worst case is with the females, as the 'desperados' tend to be Mark Suckerbag of their own and get the info nd send SMS to anyone hav'n the Gender 'Female' result'n some female colleagues have to change their numbers due to obnoxious calls nd SMS !
With reference to discussion with Adnan Jabbar, We are try'n to formulate a legal action against such issues in Pakistan. Lets hope for the best !
