Ping.
Note well the pernicious philosophy behind this: that government sets policy without reference to the wishes or intentions of the people and the people are expected to comply.
What’s next? A thought crimes bill? If so, then I’m in trouble.
Oh the Fed Gov won;t abuse this new power....

If, and it’s a big if, a Republican wins the Presidency, he should rescind every Executive Order the Fuhrer has signed.
Excerpt:
“Obama’s executive order codifies his government experiment into law, allowing every agency to target individuals for greater service and success.
“A growing body of evidence demonstrates that behavioral science insights — research findings from fields such as behavioral economics and psychology about how people make decisions and act on them — can be used to design government policies to better serve the American people,” Obama writes in his executive order.”
Why do I get the feeling that this isn’t just an innocuous government services marketing improvement?
The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.
That’s exactly what came to mind (along with Orwell ‘ s 1984)

My son is high functioning ASD. This frightens me.
If you vote republican, you have a behaviorial problem and must go to re-education camps.
If you own a gun, you have a behaviorial problem and must go to re-education camps.
If you are white, you have a behaviorial problem and must go to re-education camps.
If you don't think I am the best thing this country has evern seen, you have a behaviorial problem and must go to re-education camps.
You know those calls where they say “this call may be recorded”? I always thought that was to protect you, the caller, or for training purposes for the caller.
Wrong! They can figure out within a few sentences what type of person you are and what type of person you will relate to better, and what type of sales pitch you will buy. So they next time the company calls you they will be better prepared.
In some ways that MIGHT be good (like customer service). In the hands of the government - no thanks.
This is not good, behavioral health can mean a lot of things, children with Autism, Aspergers Syndrome, Mental Retardation can all be grouped under behavioral health. In Nazi germany, people whom were mentally retarded, people whom had head injuries were immediately placed into an institutional setting, and they were used for experiments to test out Hitler’s crazy plans for the annihilation of the Jews, Gypsys, Slavs and Political Adversaries
He’s making a list!
He’s checking it twice!
Gonna find out who’s naughty or nice!
Better honed pablum huh?
“The program, however, will likely lead more government agencies to using and storing data from randomized research trials on everyday Americans to understand their behavior.”
They can understand this thought: FUBO!
RE: “This frightens me.”
It does for me too.
And it should frighten and pi$$ off everyone here!
Go to the following link and read the map of where All of your Personal Health Information is shared with.
* http://thedatamap.org/
*this link is from the Havard Privacy Project. I’ve verified the data broker map with the Hospital Information Management organization I belong too.
Thousands of unregulated data brokers buy, sell, process, and archive your PHI data. It is the Wild West in data broker land. They are not as bound to HIPAA as you may think.
Neither is the Federal Health Exchange.
Is this Executive Order the nexus of a government big data analytics initiative to collect, process, and develop a detailed citizen Behavioral dossier with aspects of ALL data, ie: health history, criminal, education, affiliations, financial, credit, IP address history (site and search preferences)?
Remember, up until recently, most government databases were segregated based on function, ie: FBI = criminal, IRS = tax/financial, HHS / VA = PHI health data.
Now it appears that the Behavioral data initiative may be what’s needed justify developing a more extensive means of citizen data collection to build behavioral profiles, “to better provide government services”.
Will discuss this with fellow Privacy Professionals for legal assessment and update.
In the mean while, please share your thoughts.
Thx
