You missed about 95% of the story.
It’s been uncovered that there is rampant abuse of the facial recognition system with people using non-traceable users to access the system, and many politicians and journalists having their biometric data looked up for seemingly no reason.
Forensics have also determined that lots of records have been deleted, and that in many instances (over 300) someone has attempted to delete the proof that the deletion even happened.
