To make matters worse, the current COVID-19 pandemic has made data particularly vulnerable to misuse, as the crisis has distracted some from data security and privacy protocols.

Plus some welding gear, a sled, and hey presto, a one-man scrum machine.Tuungafasi delighted his Instagram followers back in May when Super Rugby was on ice, posting video of his heavy duty training methods. With assistance from two-year-old daughter Lamara, who calmly went along for the ride. “My little future Black Ferns tighthead prop,” Tuungafasi wrote.Tuungafasi either pulled along the heavy vehicle with help from a harness, or shoved it…
