Completely off topic, but, seeing your comment about paper:
I was in a thrift store this weekend in which they had a couple shelves stocked reams of 8.5x11 paper for $.10. I haven't printed anything in ages, but, I couldn't help buying a ream while laughing about what it represented.
But surely someone's emails must be worse?!
Every month you read about 1 or 2 from years ago that just came out or ones that just happened. People act like its the end of the world and their entire life is now open for everyone because they are just that interesting.
The only ones that actually matter are email, payment info leaks/hacks other wise its not worth a damn and can be found by just googling your name and doing some research.

There are many reasons why countries use secret vote systems.
If this was made easily available, worse case scenarios some people could lose their jobs or something... There was a doctor in the news a while ago who refused to see a patient she knew had an opposing political stand. All in all, it creates a solid division in society.
And if this knowledge was a regular thing, buying votes would be much more common. Even forcing votes.

Accessing someone else's information by directly accesses the memory without the owners permission is hacking regardless of the server is encrypted/foirewalled/a password that was actual "password" or none of those things.
And you don't know what unsecured even means in this context without qualification. Don't pretend to know what you are talking about when you clearly do not.
Wow, that is like, every voter in America
I level warriors, I have 48 max level warriors.
These infos were exposed, not necessarily leaked.
Here's hoping nobody managed to siphon all 1,7 TB of it onto their server.
What kind of bafoon, puts such information on a Server with Internet access and then does not even protect it? Am I reading this right? The only thing that protected that info was people not knowing the address? No Password, No Encryption for the files?
Well, you asked for the worse that could happen... Also, that's not how literally works.
If they just use it quietly, some people may make some money, some elections may be slightly unfair, some Americans will be played by the media, nothing out of the ordinary. But if someone decides to make it public, it could be pretty bad.
Unsecured emails? I haven't heard this in politics before ever!
