More confusing to me is that interview cards have effectively always had a aka field and police records have “known” associates fields. I remember my parents gleefully showing me their FBI files that outlined that info (and how frequently wrong it was). Is it bad that cops dragnet data? Probably? Is it shocking? Of course not, it’s one of the reason the proponents of the bill of rights demanded it. It’s what cops do.
