This is why I don’t understand your concerns. You start off freaking out about the public health officials having widely available location data, and keep harping about the government, but never once focusing on the actual data collection by private entities. Come on. Do you really think Foursquare is HIPPA compliant?
- chaps 5y ago1. That's not really how FOIA works. 2. It's spelled HIPAA. 3. Foursquare isn't bound by HIPAA because they're not a covered entity, unlike the CDC. 4. Believe me, I'm livid about the selling and collection by private entities. 5. I'm only bringing up the FOIA side of things in an attempt to highlight something that you might not have considered. Judging by your misunderstanding of HIPAA and FOIA, it seems that you could stand to consider more.
