| In light of [[http://www.rappler.com/nation/politics/elections/2016/128716-comelec-data-leak-filipino-voters-risk-trend-micro|the recent breach at COMELEC involving personal information of 55-million Filipino voters]], we're compiling certain measures below that may help mitigate some privacy risks entailed by the incident. Since Filipino voters are generally young, it can take decades before much of the personal information from the breach becomes obsolete and useless to those who may commit fraud using the COMELEC data. Such data include (at least) fullnames, birthdates, birthplaces, addresses, voters' ID numbers, fingerprint hashes as well as (in some cases) passport numbers, tax identification numbers, fullnames of parents, email addresses, physical stats (height, weight). It appears to be, by far, the biggest online privacy breach in world history. | In light of [[http://www.rappler.com/nation/politics/elections/2016/128716-comelec-data-leak-filipino-voters-risk-trend-micro|the recent breach at COMELEC involving personal information of 55-million Filipino voters]], we're compiling certain measures below that may help mitigate some privacy risks entailed by the incident.
