I find it really unfortunate that the US is so blatantly disregarding data privacy.
In a world of eroding freedom, lack of data privacy can become a severe safety risk.
The return of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the reversal of Roe v. Wade and Russia's recent moves give me an idea of dynamics that can turn dark quickly.

I'm assuming they later post these online or run some kind of ALPR on it for harassment.
