Who has access to the back end data, and the ability within it to change any data they want?

Because a group of people with this power exists, whether or not you believe they will act upon it.

The power of the government being premised solely on who has access to the backend data is certainly a novel political theory.

That isn’t at all why the two systems were being criticized, and trying to frame it like that is extremely disingenuous.
