What are you trying to say. Won't that at least be a beneficial outcome of having all this data being mined?

- Yizahi 7y agoAaand your deductible has now tripled, enjoy being broke and temporarily healthy. :) (please don't tell me that googlenet would never sell/barter/exchange this data or analyzed results based on it).
- username90 7y ago> please don't tell me that googlenet would never sell/barter/exchange this data or analyzed results based on it Why would they be any less trustworthy than the hospitals or insurance companies who normally has this data?
- Yizahi 7y agoFirst and main point - currently it is either hospitals+insurance have this data or hospitals+insurance+google. Even without paranoia or conspiracies it is logical that N entities is more trustworthy than N+1. And another thing - hospitals are much more regulated (insurance - I don't know) by government and due to their byzantine structure and ancient IT systems it is harder to do mass extraction of data. One patients data - easy, a small bribe to one or two humans and it's yours. Data on million of patients - much harder. Google on the other hand has means AND motive to do anything with any amount of personal data. They can set high frequency trading with it if they want. Nothing to stop them, zero regulation, offshore management, offshore funding.
