Per Dan Bongino yesterday, a big disaster is that the Taliban has been able to get the ‘bio metric’ data for everyone who has worked for/helped the US - names, addresses, fingerprints, etc.

Is Bongino PRESUMING there was that sort of data? And that anyone bothered to preserve it, much less keep it safe?

Pretty big assumption, that.

Taliban reportedly seize biometrics devices used by US military

The Taliban have reportedly seized biometrics devices used by the US military that could help identify Afghan nationals who worked for the US government and aided coalition forces, raising concerns the Taliban could use the information to retaliate in the wake of the collapse of the US-backed government.

The devices, known as HIIDE, for Handheld Interagency Identity Detection Equipment, were seized last week as the Taliban went on an offensive march to overtake Kabul, Afghanistan’s capital, sources tell The Intercept. Information stored on the devices include iris scans, fingerprints and biographical information, the news outlet reported Tuesday. They can also reportedly be used to access a broad centralized database.
