As a developer, that's awesome. As a citizen.. I would guess not so much.

In Turkey everything is accessible with API's. Legal records, insurance, education, work, bank records, things you own (houses, land, probably cars), your address (both work and home), your e-mail, phone number, every other phone number you own, you can even do a quick query on if a car has ever been in an accident or if someone has priors.
Not everything is open to everyone though. My company had access to some of this, it was nice. (Edit: nice as in, it made our life easier.)
