Surely you aren't claiming deeper knowledge of UK data protection law and UK best practices regarding processing health-related data than everyone else here? You have demonstrated a lack of familiarity with the general UK/EU regime around privacy and data protection. You were either unaware that the ICO was formally investigating the deal we're talking about or misunderstood the significance of that. You seem to be assuming that everyone else is as liberal with sharing personal data as the US regime, but if anything it's probably the US regime that is the outlier, and it's not something many of us think we should emulate.
