Woke up a slight sore throat so thought I'd do the right thing & get a Covid test. Official Gov.uk website now demanding I share my information with an American Credit Check Company.
No way that's good news.

This is the same website that I could already log into and pay my taxes, so why this? Quick search shows that not only does it look like our govt are using the pandemic to sell some data harvesting to the US, but it's actively stopped people being able to get home tests.
Awful

Think I am right in saying, under the EU's GDPR rules a company would not be able to hold onto information given in this way. Those rules do not apply to the USA.
So, if you had any doubt whether Tories would dare make money off the NHS in a global pandemic, sure looks that way.

Imagine some folks are tweeting me to explain I'm a dumbass & this is normal & a good thing. Sure. could be this is all legit.

In the interest of spreading honest information I've been told TransUnion also have a UK office in Leeds. I took my info from this search result which labels them American. Still seems dodgy to me but, only fair to point this out.
