Following massive data leak, Mexico restricts information on voter lists given to political parties

Posted on May 5, 2016 by Dissent

In the wake of a massive data leak involving a voter list given to Movimiento Ciudadanos, new guidelines concerning electoral lists will be going into effect. While the exact details of the new procedure have not been made totally clear yet, it appears that one of the most significant changes is that political parties will receive lists that do not contain individuals’ postal addresses or OCR numbers.

When more information becomes available, let’s see if uploading the lists to a server is explicitly prohibited, too.
