RE: Vietnam government accidentally posts all foreigners personal information

Oh man that is huge! Maybe localized but still a giant breach.

I suppose it still all comes down to one stupid move from one person and this info is out there for sale (for free this time) for the companies stealing people's identity.

Once something makes it onto the internet, everyone has access to it. Not that it is that tough for people to collect and correlate that information but the passport number being right there spells easy identity theft for all of those people.

Do they make reparations or just claim 'my bad'?
