People named in JFK assassination documents are not happy their personal information was released

Associated Press  

Sensitive personal information including Social Security numbers was revealed in the newly unredacted John F. Kennedy assassination documents released this week, and that is not sitting well with the people affected. “At the request of the White House, the National Archives and the Social Security Administration immediately put together an action plan to proactively help individuals whose personal information was released in the files.” The White House press office also released a statement from the National Archives. “The National Archives and Records Administration and the Social Security Administration are working closely together to protect the individuals who may be affected from their information being exploited.” The statement also said that while the National Archives will be contacting people whose personal information was disclosed, it urged those people to contact the National Archives. The National Archives began screening the documents on Wednesday to identify all the Social Security numbers in the assassination records, the White House said.
