I think the comment around HIPAA is particularly important: hospitals and other entities collecting health information are required to have extremely strict data privacy standards. Suppose Facebook started selling your suicide risk to insurance companies? Suppose they leaked? For those individuals, it would be a disaster, and one they had no control over. Regulation must come to Facebook and all the major tech companies that forces them to treat their data akin to personal health data.
