I wouldn't be surprised if people are denied care and left to die due to exorbitant prices based on random, undoubtedly wrong algorithms. Here's where the cost of personal data really becomes huge, at in life or death. Insurers have played god like this since their inception and nothing is going stop them from making more money by shutting out anyone who is a threat to their bottom line. We've only had a law that prevents discrimination on pre-existing conditions for a few years. I'm sure the insurance companies will lobby hard to get rid of it so they can let the very sick suffer and die rather than be forced to pay for their healthcare. This is an end run to that goal in case lobbying to murder people legally fails.
