[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2411007, member: 493719"] Not a conspiracy theorist but do believe MY private data IS my PRIVATE data. Now that's out of the way i imagined what this could lead to.. I see it might help research, but wouldn't that data still be available,? so it's for profit, for some companies, (cant see this being FREE to those who ask for it.) So WHY would they PAY & want it...mmhh. Top of my list is insurers. While for me that relates to travel, driving, pretty sure there will be others. so, for travel i declare two issues. T2D and asthma...No issue with that. help if i needed it could cost more, so i pay more, seems right. however, some may simply aggregate ALL my health data and deem me an ever higher risk. Thinking on that now... i don't believe or agree, anyone on here is the A Typical Type 2 diabetic that doctors and stats seem to refer to constantly.:rolleyes: yet we all are lumped in with the same who won't or can't action to amend their lifestyle, and follow the progressive line we all hear about. Now those paying won't be wanting less cash for there products, will they..? so higher prices for some, would seem a good possibility. what else might that mean ? NOW or at any point, some new links, MAY however tenuously linked to your date, could either see your premiums rise..(likely) or might even mean you can no longer get cover, despite the fact without such data you could and most likely pay far less.. and be just as safe. so travel. More expensive., IF you can get such cover and driving more expensive, IF you can even get cover. bottom line ?. once IN you can NOT opt out. Opt out you CAN opt in. anyone who thinks companies are paying for such data is so they can charge us all less.... :hilarious::hilarious::hilarious::hilarious: [/QUOTE]
