In what is the largest known data exposure of its kind, UpGuard’s Cyber Risk Team can now confirm that unsecured databases containing the sensitive personal details of over 198 million American voters was left exposed to the internet by a firm working on behalf of the Republican National Committee (RNC) in their efforts to elect Donald Trump. The data, which was stored in a publicly accessible cloud server owned by Republican data firm Deep Root Analytics, included 1.1 terabytes of entirely unsecured personal information compiled by DRA and at least two other Republican contractors, TargetPoint Consulting, Inc. and Data Trust.

Names, DOB's, addresses and political topic leanings.

Could be good for blackmail in the right hands, but luckily no SSN's or financial info.

If this had happened to the Democrats, the word "Democrat" and "DNC" would never have been mentioned even once.

So some hacker has my name, my address, and the fact that I've voted Republican in every single local, state, and
Federal election since I was 18. Not one frig given.
