As you point out, the information is already 'out there'. As a private citizen I worry more about being defrauded by other citizens or private companies.
If I had political aspirations, I would be more concerned about how power brokers and political enemies might use/corrupt my "file".
Coordinated greed pretty much trumps disorganized democracy.
(BTW - I suspect you're already pretty well hosed if you have a driver's license/passport, donated blood or done any kind of loan as an adult.)
