One of the worst outcomes is going to be "if you don't let us collect your data then we have to set your insurance prices high because you're an unknown"
I think this is pretty likely to happen. The same way if hiring managers can't find your LinkedIn or Facebook they might think that's suspicious behavior instead of just privacy conscious
- hnpolicestate 2y agoYes. But I think they dislike both for different reasons. Suspicious employees/customers and privacy conscious employees/customers. The former is understandable but the latter presents a risk because it's harder to fully know a closed book, harder to exploit a closed book. What's he/she thinking? It's sad having to treat every institution one deals with on a day to day basis as an adversary by default, but I think we have enough evidence to justify it.
