(yet another newly revised total...) http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/!ut/p/_s.7_0_A/7_0_1OB?contentidonly=true&contentid=2007/04/0110.xml The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has narrowed to approximately 38,700 the number of people whose private identification information was accessible to the public on a government-wide website. USDA takes seriously its responsibility to protect private information and after learning of the potential exposure, immediately took action to remove the information from the website. USDA is also offering credit monitoring services to protect the personal accounts of affected individuals, due to the potential that information was downloaded prior to removal. There is no evidence that this information has been misused.
