Jeb Bush Publishes Thousands of Citizens' Email Addresses

Posted by timothy on from the public-records-now dept.

blottsie writes Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush hasn't even yet formally declared his desire to run for president in 2016, but he's already started what appears to be a major privacy blunder. His new project, the Jeb Emails, a massive, open database of correspondence to and from his jeb@jeb.org email address, publishes the full names, messages, and email addresses of his constituents who emailed him during his eight years in office.

    Looks like no one is able to reach slashdot and the site admins are either unaware or they are not talking.

    I like Jeb as a fellow human being and I think his heart is in the right place, but I could never vote for him for President. Scott Walker will be getting my vote.

    I like you as a fellow human being and I think your heart is in the right place, but I could never agree with your vote for President. Mr. Walker is so out of touch with his own state, I can't imagine how he could effectively lead a nation.

    Was Carter president 12 years ago when we started a war against a wrong country? :P
