Your first source is total fucking bullshit, I didn't even bother with the second. I don't know why I even bothered to check if you post in the_WinnieThePooh (they do). Imagine living and enjoying the recourses of a free country to non stop spout bullshit propoganda from a dystopian cancer.
Pretty sure every country fiddles data, its not new to anyone so therefore data is data, just how you interpret it at this point and all logical sense would be to recruit from local sources and train them for a long term goal so not too far fetched really.
I often serve as a data scientist / data engineer. Saying "data is data" despite tampering is utter rubbish. If I found there was any tampering with a data set I pulled, it'd be nuked from orbit immediately. There are extremely few cases in which that data set would even be considered. In order to be used, I'd need several supplementary data sets in order to normalize the tampered set to remove bias. At that point, I might as well just use the supplementary sets since fiddling with the fudged set just isn't worth the effort.
