ICE shared Medicaid data it wasn't supposed to have with Palantir
- kittikitti 3mo agoHIPPA privacy laws are rarely enforced against corporations and government. These laws are meant to suppress whoever they want to. It's baffling how they continue to get away with this until you realize that the United States is a banana republic.
- Jimmc414 3mo agoThe government's stated remediation for the Palantir transfer was that the data had been shared over a Microsoft Teams chat and was deleted from the chat. That is not a deletion. According to CMS's security program documentation, Medicare and Medicaid are a covered entities under HIPAA, subject to 60 day notice to affected individuals, reporting to HHS OCR, and notice to media outlets when a breach affects more than 500 residents of a state. Not to mention this violated a standing court order. https://security.cms.gov/learn/cms-breach-response-handbook https://security.cms.gov/learn/cms-breach-response-handbook

- hilariously 3mo agoCool, well let me know when you prosecute the president and his cronies and we can work our way down.
- bakies 3mo agoWell, the admin should stop creating illegal aliens by cancelling visas and green cards without reason or notice.

- bakies 3mo agoThis isnt at entry, this is people living legally in the USA for years. You're a sick heartless piece of shit if your opinion is really that the country should throw anyone in a concentration camp without reason at any time.
- TheCoelacanth 3mo agoObviously they can do it. That doesn't mean it's good policy.
- SirFatty 3mo agoI'm sure they did, and a lot more besides. So what? What is anyone going to do about it? Congress certainly doesn't give a fig.

- bakies 3mo agoAny examples? I certainly don't like that they're involved in any capacity. I'd rather the FBI just do some good ol' fashion police work to apprehend those traitors of democracy.
- techteach00 3mo agoSee you proved my point. You know the tools the FBI uses. I'm sure their in bed with Palantir too. Police state against my enemies but not me and the good guys. It's all so tiresome.
- bakies 3mo agoMy enemies? I don't have enemies. Normal people don't have enemies. Those people are criminal insurrectionists.
- jazzyjackson 3mo agoJust curious, where would you say the line is between “police state” and “a state with police”
- AnimalMuppet 3mo agoWikipedia says that in a police state, the government exerts an extreme amount of control over society and individuals. That leaves "extreme" undefined, though, so it's subjective. (Also, you know, Wikipedia.) I'm not the one you asked, but: Me, personally, I'd draw the line at the independence of the courts. If the courts are independent, if they can rule against the police for failure to prove their case or for procedural violations or whatever, then it's not a police state. If the police win the borderline cases (or worse, the clearly bogus cases) just because they're the police, then it's a police state.
