As much as some data are public, page can not disclose them to third parties without authorization, evaluates expert

Site All About All data allows users to search for people and companies

Another site of obscure origin cares (or should care) Brazilians. This time it's All About All that allows anyone with Internet access find "too much information", as the site on people and businesses. Try putting your own name in the search field and you will be surprised with the results. The exposed data facilitate the work of fraudsters and even kidnappers.

Besides the name, there are gender and date of birth, the city and the neighborhood in which you live, the CEP, and even a map showing the perimeter of your home. In some cases, the information is outdated, but in others, even the names of the neighbors appear to be related to their profile.

The site comes from the Seychelles islands and is already the subject of a public petition asking the Superintendent of the Federal Police in Rondônia to investigate the sitehttp: //tudosobretodos.se/ because the data disclosed without authorization. In the About Us page, the site presents the property of Top Documents LLC company, and says its servers are outside the country, in France, which according Gisele Arantes, a lawyer expert in digital rights, already shows the malice of their owners. Aparentmente, the site is new: on social networks by the end of Friday afternoon (24), the Facebook page had about 300 followers. On Twitter, are less than ten followers, and Google+ are only 50 people.

In All About All, there is even a page of FAQ which explains that different sources feed the records. "These are registries, published court decisions, official journals, forums, information bureaus, social networking and consultations on public sites on the Internet. The information collected is the way they are presented by the sources, so it is impossible to guarantee that the data is updated and they are true. " The site maintains that there are only public information.

In this sense, Gisele says that information can even be public, but to say that is a given public does not mean it is publicly accessible to third parties. Data such as being exposed on the site would need the permission of the persons involved to be disclosed, which did not happen in all cases.

"In addition, every database must inform your building supply and have documents that prove the consent of the people who allowed their data to be passed on to third parties", explains the expert. Also according to Gisele, even if you have collected this information in a lawful manner, the site can not create personal records without authorization. "This site violates the death of privacy, so privileged by the Constitution, the Civil Marco Internet and the Consumer Protection Code," said Gisele.

To make matters worse, the site offers access plans to the other data such as social security number, full address, relatives, companies and societies, alternative addresses and "probable social networks." Access plans can be purchased via PayPal, or Credit Card Visa, Master and American Express. The plans range from $ 9.99 for 10 credits to R $ 0.99 R $ 24.90 for 30 credits at R $ 0.83 each, and R $ 79 for 100 credits at R $ 0.79 each one. "And the site also intends to earn money illegally, revealing data that an attacker might want to commit fraud, getting credit, falsifying documents or even plan a kidnapping," says Gisele.

What can you do?

According to Gisele Arantes, there is nothing to do, as well as in the episode of site names Brazil. The only way to get to a site hosted outside the country is via letters rogatory. Similar to the letter rogatory, the document differs by its international character. The letter rogatory is aimed at performing acts and procedural steps abroad, for example, hearing witnesses, but has no enforceable purposes. According to lawyer, this procedure can take more than two years to complete. So it is important that federal prosecutors get involved in the case, as with the names Brazil.

"Getting blame someone who has a service hosted outside is almost impossible. So it is the public prosecutor to remove the service in Brazil. Especially because reaches a collective right, a number of affected people." In the case of names Brazil, the MP could contact the website provider, which received the notification and took the site down.

Contacted by iG, the regional office in Rondônia, whom an online petition has been addressed, he said, through his counsel, he had no information about and no investigation had been initiated. IG sent an e-mail contact available on the site All about All but received no response to the publication of this report.
