[datameet] Re: Security Issues with the Voter List

HI YES, I think the way the Data access is provided gives transparency but it can be misused. I had downloaded Goa and Delhi pdfs several years back. Then explained to someone on a social network how he/she can be tracked and Stalked. PIPL.com can help you get complete name even if your na

Dear Gautam, Thank you. This is very interesting. I wrote a piece on this issue right after the failed Google-ECI deal in February The UK approach seems to be a good one. In UK there are two voter lists - "full list" and "edited list". You can choose to be removed from the e
