Feedback from the customer on his
Thistle Finder Self Check Report:
I didn’t realise that dating profiles could be found. I don’t even think you can search for specific people on Tinder. It was interesting to see that all my photos were completely public as well as the place I studied, workplace and age. These are pretty standard pieces of information to show on the profile, but the fact that the information isn’t exclusive to users on the app was a surprise.
I had never thought about my Steam account being public. There isn’t a lot of information on there, but my friend list and how many games I own as well as some achievements are all displayed for anyone to see.
I knew about two of the LinkedIn profiles, but a third one I forgot I even made. I was even more surprised to see that it was still ‘active’ and hadn’t been deleted.
I didn’t realise how a post discussing politics could affect travel plans. I had forgotten about news reports where people had been denied entry or arrested at borders. The report reminded me of my post and the risk that comes with it. Super helpful considering I have travelled in the past and want to plan trips in the future.
