Your Privacy May Have Just Been Violated

Through Stellify's link about the Comelec, I discovered the dreaded privacy nightmare.

The Philippine Commission On Elections (COMELEC) has just given up your private info to everybody online. They may have had good intentions with this - to make info public knowledge. This is a wrong way of doing it. If you are a registered Filipino Voter, you better start getting angry because other people are seeing personal stuff about you.

What are the implications of this big blunder? You may just be getting a whole lot of junk mail soon. Your Name and Address are shown on the web. People can actually STALK you. They'll even know your birthdate!
