Unredacted JFK Files Release Triggers Privacy Breach and Legal Action

The Trump administration's release of over 60,000 pages of JFK assassination documents exposed sensitive personal data, prompting lawsuits and criticism over inadequate review processes.

The unredacted release of JFK assassination files exposed sensitive personal information, including Social Security numbers, of living individuals.
Joseph diGenova, a former Trump campaign lawyer, plans to sue the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration for violating privacy laws.
DiGenova's personal information, tied to his work with a 1970s Senate committee investigating government abuses, was among the exposed data.
He criticized the document review process as incompetent, alleging reviewers failed to protect private information adequately.
The Trump administration has acknowledged the breach and is implementing mitigation measures, though public scrutiny of the decision continues to grow.
