man, looking at old aerial photos of areas you know well today is fun |

while I was waiting for some testing to run, I pulled down some old photos ranging from 1947 to 1980 from earthexplorer.usgs.gov and positioned them in google earth (not terribly fun. I wish GE would read the GeoTIFF metadata and position using that) |

so walgreens sends out "prescription ready for pickup" emails if they have your email address on file. the message doesn't say what the drug is, but it gives some of the digits of the prescription ID: XXNNNN-XXXXX with numbers in the N positions and literal X for the X position. |
08:06
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
They also include information about the store that has the prescription: store number, address, phone, etc |
08:06
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
funny thing... their prescription IDs are (sequentialnumber)-(storenumber) |
08:07

so their anonymizing only really obscures two digits |
