"The independent inquiry into Child Sex Abuse (IICSA) was forced to issue an apology following the loss of vital evidence in the case was deleted from their servers."
An apology? WTF? "Oh, we're sorry we deleted an entire database of elite child rapers. Good day sir!"
Anyway, doesn't really matter. I have no doubt all this information is stored somewhere in the USA.

This is completely misleading. This was 2 years ago and they did lose some things but not their entire database. The story as i remember it is - They lost about 2 weeks of phone calls to their hotline when their website changed - possibly about 100 people. It is nothing like the OP summarises as "entire database " and it irresponsible reporting to even suggest this.

I posted it because the article links back to where the information comes from. I figured people here would be smart enough to do exactly that. The main reason for posting this was to have people who have experience in technology to come on and share their expertise about how lame the governments assertions are. Nothing was really lost. That much is obvious.

The original article from Neon Nettle is not available,. merely an articel quoting NeonNettle
I am not going to much spend time searching but this article is fairer https://news.sky.com/story/child-abuse-inquiry-deleted-survivors-stories-10342955
This is not to minimise the "mistake" if it was one, it was a major error.
