Happy New Year from Volusia County?

Dear Editor:

Over development, higher taxes, less services... And now we have to sheepishly submit sensitive personal data to a third-party management company for the privilege of parking at our oceanfront parks paid for by our taxes and Echo funds? Say it isn't so!

At the in-person registration location, the group working appeared to not have any training to explain and therefore execute their task of uploading residents' personal data to the "secure" website. Secure being the optimal word. 

Wasn't the U.S. Government's database "secure" when military personnel data was breached? Wasn't AT&T's customer database "secure" when millions had sensitive personal data hacked?

Sadly over the years, this list is long and technology is not getting better to protect anything. Field of Dreams...You create it and the thieves will come...It's a challenge for those with the skills!

Add this to a long list of failed experiments.

Disappointed Volusia County Resident!
