Damn that's scary to think that the government was so callous with biometric data. Like you mentioned in one of your other comments to someone else in the thread, it's wise to couple biometric scans with a passkey or even yubikey as Aadhaar number by itself is no longer a good first factor (especially with compromise of biometric data). I don't see how it's possible for the government to rollback collected biometric data so it makes more sense now to use multifactor authentication. Even though UIDAI's biometrics isn't directly compromised the fact that the local government was also collecting biometrics and that leaked makes it even worse. Now those same biometrics can be used to authenticate Aadhaar transactions. I see how this can be a major issue. This information was an eye opener for me. I learnt a lot from our discussions today. Thank you!
