Rob, you are right I am a coward, however, I am wondering if this will be reported according to the law (at least since Nov. 2018) to the Canadian Privacy Commissioner along with them notifying every affect person (in the event there is risk of harm to them)?

Of course with all laws there is wiggle room.....the used "significant harm" in the law.....

So apparently CBP doesn't want to name the subcontractor who had the breach. Just wondering if they will report to the Privacy Commissioner?

A little birdie keeps mentioning a subcontractor by the name of Perceptics being involved.

So since I cross the border frequently and I knew that both my photo and my car plate were being captured, will someone notify me that that information is now out there?????

I imagine that I will hear nothing or maybe a cricket but I would love to know if the Privacy Commissioner gets a report.
