I agree generally but I hope we make as much real anonymous health data available for research.
Google is certified and runs the biggest medical database with (I believe without googling this) the biggest hospital operator in the USA.
I have a condition which is rare enough that it doesn't get enough funding and data is missing
- ohgr 1y agoI would leave that in the hands of professionals though. Which is evidentially not this lot. Not even remotely.
- mschuster91 1y ago> Google is certified That doesn't matter _at all_ when the government comes knocking at Google's door - in the best case, they have a subpoena that can at least be appealed afterwards, in the worst case it's DOGE teens backed by a bunch of heavily armed guys in camouflage.
- ohgr 1y agoIndeed. No data is safe or secure in such environments. This has become an issue big enough that the US company I work for is actually removing data from US cloud providers to make it harder to get at. The European divisions have started data sovereignty projects because it's now a principal risk. I'm out of the cloud as well.

- ohgr 1y agoYeah similar. My company is US and have banned all travel to US. Said we can do stuff over Teams instead.
- croes 1y agoDidn’t they already show that these data can’t really be anonymized if it should still be useful?
