OTOH, breaches especially Health Data breaches are the most over-rated, hysteria inducing breaches of all time. There is ZERO use for anyone for your health data

Insurance companies, and companies that might look to hire you want your health data. Others may want your health data to bribe you. Maybe you got a STD from a mistress. Maybe you have a heart condition and the business you are interested in working for self-insures. They don't want you on their books!

  Yes. You can give me actual data points to disprove that, especially one with statistical significance (compared to other means such data can be obtained like impersonation)

There is a field in a claims form that indicates what type of insurance it is. One of these is CHAMPUS, which indicates that it is for a service member or their family. You can tell which. As a basic case, accumulate these (as in the CHC breach of ~30% of Americans) and you have a nice map of where US military are. Since bases house particular units and types of forces, a nation state can estimate strength and investment in the US military. In a specific case, the response to claims includes patient responsibility (deductible, co-insurance, co-pay.) Add that up for a financial picture, then you’ve got a nice lead list for service members who have money problems.

Abortion prosecution or societal ostracization. Streamer doxing. Literally just being trans. HIV fear mongering. Illegal fuckery with your insurance rates. Employment discrimination. Stalking. Racial discrimination. Can you imagine trying to fully trust a mental health professional today? A patient can't see a therapist's notes, but they sure as hell can be breached. There is zero LEGITIMATE use for your breached health data.

  Can you give me example of it actually happening? If not this is the definition of hysteria
