Of course they are, why would there be a basic expectation of privacy for medical data, it’s only a HiPAA violation to disclose it.
Someone needs to request the worst of the worst police officers’ personal prescription records and release those to make a point
Unfortunately, I’m afraid it will only enforce a two tier privacy system: one where people of importance get granted a privilege when others don’t…
I’m obliquely suggesting its already that way and it needs to be reconfigured. Said bad apple’s records would likely be treated with
professional courtesylike those friends of the police get out tickets free cards
And then we can celebrate the them at their funeral. So sad how many accidental officer firearm discharges are associated with people “making a point”.
Seriously, what part of surveillance police state do people not understand
Problem is, it’s not! Every loophole they needed was built into HIPAA from the start. Most would be very surprised how much is allowed to show to people that aren’t your doctor.
It’s not even just your medical data. I picked up a prescription for my mother who just had spinal surgery, and they wouldn’t hand over the pain medication without taking down all of my info. I’ve had no issue picking up any of her other prescriptions. Seems the war on drugs is still alive and well.
Meanwhile, I’ve seen dozens of videos on Instagram of cartel guys floating literal boatloads full of coke and god knows what else across the gulf of mexico.
Watching the US government handle drug enforcement is like watching a toddler eat piss with a fork. Whatever they’re hoping to achieve isn’t going to help anyone and they’re not even trying to do it effectively.
they’re not even trying to do it effectively
Of course they’re not, because they’re smart enough to know they can’t as laws only apply to the people that willingly chose to follow them.
They know damn well that screwing with people, like the 99.99% of people buying Primatine and Bronkaid arent using it to make meth, those people buy kilos of it online and have it shipped to their doorstep, but if they fuck with people that suffer from allergies they get to say they’re doing “something”, and that shuts up the uninformed majority.
If they actually wanted a war on drugs, they could be very effective at it, but they know better. If they actually went through with it, theyd have no rationale to blow billions on useless govt agencies like the DEA. It’s in their best interest to talk the talk, but not walk the walk.
What are they, high or something?
Bring on the charges and lawsuits.
I take ADHD medication and the laws make you feel like a criminal for buying it.
