I don't see a world where this won't be abused.

Maybe by the authorities, furthering policies already in place to deal with people who don't toe a certain line of thought.

Probably by people outside the law, who now have a fantastic system to relentlessly attack. A place to source identity information that can be used for almost any part of a criminal enterprise, from buying credit cards to selling new names to carry.

And when security of government systems fail, in a way where damage is irreversible like this case, it is... Rare... To see fair outcomes.
