The personal details of world leaders at the last G20 summit were accidentally disclosed by the Australian immigration department, which did not consider it necessary to inform those world leaders of the privacy breach.

The Guardian can reveal an employee of the agency inadvertently sent the passport numbers, visa details and other personal identifiers of all world leaders attending the summit to the organisers of the Asian Cup football tournament.

The United States president, Barack Obama, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, the German chancellor, Angela Merkel, the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, the Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe, the Indonesian president, Joko Widodo, and the British prime minister, David Cameron, were among those who attended the Brisbane summit in November and whose details were exposed.

The Australian privacy commissioner was contacted by the director of the visa services division of Australia’s Department of Immigration and Border Protection to inform them of the data breach on 7 November 2014 and seek urgent advice....

Does the information they released on 0 correlate with what sheriff A has? What FR previously posted ?

[faithhopecharity]

How did an apparently illegal alien get his hands on an American passport? Did he make it up on photoshop like his fake b/c? Or?

[faithhopecharity]

Or did he steal it like the social security account he’s using? Or?

[George from New England]

So did the release have the 5 different SSN that Obama has had ???!

Obie is the cousin..of Joko Widodo! had he been adopted by joko’s family he would now be Barack Widodo!

The personal details of world leaders at the last G20 summit *were accidentally* disclosed by the Australian immigration department, which did not consider it necessary to inform those world leaders of the privacy breach.

The Guardian can reveal an employee of the agency - inadvertently sent - the passport numbers, visa details and other personal identifiers of all world leaders attending the summit to the organisers of the Asian Cup football tournament.

The United States p_resident, Barack Obama, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin,

the German chancellor, Angela Merkel, the Chinese president, Xi Jinping,

the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, the Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe,

the Indonesian president, Joko Widodo, and the British prime minister, David Cameron,

were among those who attended the Brisbane summit in November and whose details were exposed.

“Accidentally”? How ‘bout that?

[hoosiermama]

FOX reported before this article was posted that BOs SS# and passport were involved

[WildHighlander57]

OK, so there -was- a correlation between the time of the data leak and them acting weirdly....

I, too, would like to know what was in that data!

[WildHighlander57]

Two days too soon?

What is the significance of the info coming out too soon?

[hoosiermama]

Seizethecarp would know if there was a delay or reaction by the CCP during that time period (November 2015). He might even know if there was another notable reaction by either side

I suspect this story was of the type that is released on April 1, a.k.a. April Fools Day. I say that because it would be a really big, widespread story with a lot more details available and there doesn’t, unfortunately, appear to be much more to it.

[hoosiermama]

It was mentioned twice in Fox News before it was posted here. They gave more details then this article So it’s not a 4-1 joke

Come on. Spill the beans on the usurper and his admin.
