Another obvious question is what other databases exist and how might the Taliban use all of this identity-establishing data. 👀 READ the full story to learn more: https://t.co/SdMi5bLBdf — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
The Taliban has stated publicly that they will not carry out targeted retribution against Afghans who had worked with the previous government or coalition forces. But their actions— historically and since their takeover—have not been reassuring. https://t.co/k7tH2767I9 — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
The information is also of deep military value—whether for the Americans that helped construct it or for the Taliban, both of whom are “looking for networks” of their opponent’s supporters, says @AnnieJacobsen. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
This turns what was a simple digital catalog into something far more dangerous: what Ranjit Singh of @datasociety calls a sort of “genealogy” of “community connections” that are “putting all of these people at risk.” — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
It also contains details on the person's military speciality and career trajectory, as well as relational data such as the names of their father, uncles, and grandfathers, as well as the names of the two tribal elders per recruit that served as guarantors for their enlistment. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
These include obvious personal information such as name, date, and place of birth, as well as a unique ID number that connects each profile to a biometric profile kept by the Afghan Ministry of Interior. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
Just one of the application forms alone collected 36 data points. Our sources say that each profile has 40 pieces of data per person—from iris scans and family links to their favorite fruit. https://t.co/OqJTQ9caAD — PolitiTweet.org

APPS contains some half a million records about every current and former member of the Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
Used by both the Afghan Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Defense to pay the national army and police, it is arguably the most sensitive system of its kind in the country, going into extreme levels of detail about security personnel and their extended networks. — PolitiTweet.org

We spoke to two individuals familiar with one of these systems, a US-funded database known as APPS, the Afghan Personnel and Pay System. We granted the sources anonymity to protect them against potential reprisals. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
Our original reporting shows that there is a greater threat from Afghan government databases containing sensitive personal information that could be used to identify millions of people around the country. https://t.co/SdMi5bLBdf — PolitiTweet.org

According to experts speaking to @techreview, however, these devices actually provide only limited access to biometric data, which is held remotely on secure servers. But… — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
As the Taliban swept through Afghanistan earlier this month, reports quickly circulated that they had also captured US military biometric devices. Some feared that the machines could be used to help identify Afghans who had supported coalition forces. https://t.co/SMfqZYyuAj — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
What’s in the Afghan biometric databases left to the Taliban? Almost everything, according to the insiders @eileenguo and @noori1st spoke to for this story. https://t.co/SdMi5bLBdf — PolitiTweet.org
