Armed Bitcoin Robberies Surge In Sweden Due to Open Data on Citizens
- "What appears to be common for each of these cases is that the victims had livestreamed a podcast about bitcoin/crypto days before their assault, or mentioned bitcoin in a public context."
- "This situation is occurring because in Sweden, you can easily search for any person's residential address and drive straight to their house. If you're curious, you can also search for their tax records, and find out exactly how much they paid in income or capital gains tax, and size them up from that."

Good reminder to think through your privacy, threat models, and security plans. Loop.net has a running list of people physically attacked for bitcoin.

I wonder how many of the robberies are committed by native Swedes?
If personal data about where people lives is available, that data should also be available. Otherwise its an strange logic.
