        A list that includes everyone is useless from a data analysis point of view.

          Wait, how? Because I only know about statistics and you usually want a comprehensive list to work with either partially or in bulk.

            I think the point of big data is to collect enough information to extrapolate other qualities about whatever you want to know, so if everyone is on the list then you have no patterns to go off of besides “on Earth” or “in X country”.

            Side comment: if 99% of people were on the list, the the govt could just oppress everyone with a 99% accuracy rate. It’s entirely possibly they could pick a proportion drastically lower than 99%

      I think it’s probably closer to 99%. Basically, anyone who isn’t a high-level executive in the health insurance industry.

    The more people that express negative sentiment the harder it will be for them to go after people. It’s your first amendment right, use it. Don’t comply in advance.
