> The extracted data was all the more impressive: The various devices shopped online contained names and biometric data of two U.S. military personnel, GPS coordinates of past deployment locations, and a massive biometrics database with names, fingerprints, iris scans and photos of 2,632 people. The device containing this database had last been used somewhere between Kabul and Kandahar in mid-2012.
That means from six devices there was only one with an intact database and the one with the database wasn't used since 2012. Concluding that the device in question was indeed captured after the retreat and that there is a massive amount of unwiped devices out there without providing data about the other devices is at least misleading because their very own anecdotal evidence speaks against them.
- Zacharias030 4y ago2632 is massive for info this sensitive. The rest of your inference is unclear, and not directly supported by the passage you cite.

- theCrowing 4y agoWhat's unclear exactly? Also please stop putting words in my mouth nowhere did I say that the leak of 2632 of extremely personal and identifiable information is anything but massive and why do you not make your affiliation with the release and the CCC clear, Zach? Fucking child's play.
