Don’t make our environment healthier but do keep tabs on how unhealthy you are made.
Why? Are all Americans going to get health care to make use of that collected health tracking data?
No, but our providers will use the data to deny us care.
I’m sure he means evil, but wearables really can be a boon to health. His agency really needs to be more proactive with establishing privacy protections and certifying accuracy’s/correctness, to make this really take off.
I 100% agree. If a government with good intentions helps to get more of this in the hands of people and ensures that their data STAYS their data, it could be a good thing.
I don’t trust any of the monsters in this administration, though.
I would rather they would employ strong measures to protect any data related to such devices - with severe penalties to those that break the rules - including the revocation of corporate charters.
Indeed. I do believe that the key to better health is actionable information and a gameplan for how to maintain health. But with the Shitgibbon in office, and his merry band of miscreants running the show, I can’t determine if my smartwatch will give me good readings or not, and ensure that only I get to access that data, unless I explicitly choose to let someone else access it.
Indeed. I could see a day where people deemed “unpersons” (basically anyone not sufficiently worshiping the likes of Taco) would have their data swept up and weaponized against them by insurance companies, their place of employment, etc.
Or have their devices bricked, etc…
Even w/o the likes of conservatives and Republicans, Doctorow’s Enshittification comes for virtually everything, so…
Fuck you in the neck, RFK.
So how many shares does RFK Jr have in Fitbit?
Google bought fitbit
Eric Migicovsky kills everything he creates.
I think out of all the freaks given positions in the regime, this asshole will do the most harm, kill the most people and cause the most suffering over the longest time span – and that’s saying a lot.
This data will go to Palentir. Hell no
How bout no
RFK Jr wants to make some money by selling health data to health insurance crooks
I took off my FitBit and have never put it back on. I don’t know who might be getting that information.
No
RFK Autism Nazi can jump in a volcano
Mark of the beast.
Nope.
I would like to announce that I am dead. My new health tracking app can prove it.
