Comment on Dell Data Breach
ultratiem@lemmy.ca 6 months agoHonestly wouldn’t be that much work to create codes for shippers to give out. It’s basically how tracking works. But in this case, they give the seller a code. When that code is scanned in, the shipper pulls up the associated address, and delivers it. Only the shipping place would ever know your details.
Honestly sounds like terrific b to b software to develop. Create a universal standard and we all move to not exposing our name and number and address to random strangers who do god knows what with it.

If sellers can prove that they never touch a customers home address they’re less exposed to data breaches which might look good on for insurance companies.
Honestly, this sounds it something a shipping company could provide. When you go to use Paypal for example, you get redirected to their site, put in your details and they complete the transaction without the seller knowing your financial data. The same could be done with shipping.
