That link says that they've performed one billion identifications

Thanks for that. I couldn't derive that meaning either from the referenced web page or LWN's corrected text.

It's one of the language foibles that always irritates me: people say "I did X to N things" when they mean "I did X to something N times." Like when a transit agency says 50,000 people ride the the bus on a typical day, when they really mean there are 50,000 boardings (by about 22,000 people) on a typical day.
