- Republican Party is mailing a CD with a Flash application content to voters in certain districts in Minnesota;
- The CD comes with an access code;
- No "terms of use" or privacy statement on CD;
- CD is labeled as "interactive in nature";
- you tell the program things like your private phone number, your address, your name, your spouse's name and your views on political views;
- Q: Are the results identified by access code and reported back to the GOP?
A: Yes; - Decompile the reporting stream and find what is being sent back, and where it is going;
- The data is being aggregated and mined;
- The data is not secured at the destination website;
- "This is a security breach of major proportions. And it's coming to [mailboxes in Minnesota] in a few days."
