Security guy Bruce Schneier wrote about another incident in which a call center person in India sold personal data that included banking information for British customers. What does this herald for the future of offshoring? As he says:
I predict a spate of essays warning us of the security risks of offshore outsourcing. That's stupid; this has almost nothing to do with offshoring. It's no different than the Lembo case, and that happened in the safe and secure United States.
So the real danger of offshoring to India is that we could one day drown in editorial coverage on the topic.
