  1. The Surveillance Architecture of Discovery: From Barrels to Biopolitics

    How Allan Pinkerton's 19th-century spying tactics are similar to how modern medical companies collect data and patents today in May 2026.

  2. Any security guarantee that Epic Systems can give to Quebec runs right through the White House. Whether that is something you really want to rely on right now is the hundred-million-medical-records question.

  5. TITLE: More on BetterHelp Settlement

    I believe this has a bit more information in it than the earlier
    report.  The fine is still "proposed", but:

    -- BetterHelp agrees with the settlement
    -- BetterHelp is banned under the settlement from continuing to share
    customer health data for marketing purposes
    -- BetterHelp continued to do this even after being purchased by Teladoc
    -- BetterHelp denies there is anything wrong with what they did and
    assert that **its standard industry practice**.

    *FTC fines BetterHelp $7.8M, alleges it shared consumers' health info
    with advertisers**

  8. Mom's #LifeLabs #DataBreach #ClassAction settlement cheque arrived. A whole $5.86 - after $2 processing fee 😏

    "The website says the lawsuit occurred after the personal information, including health card numbers, of 8.6 million customers was stolen.

    Payments are much smaller than what was originally promised on the settlement approval notice, which was compensation of $50 to $150."

  10. UnitedHealth says Change hackers stole health data on ‘substantial proportion of people in America’. The health tech giant handles health data for about half of all Americans.
    This is an immense hack and loss of data. Imagine all that medical data being sold on the darkweb to the highest bidder.

    Though some of the chains require their lawyers to review law enforcement requests, three of the largest — #CVS Health, #Kroger & #RiteAid, with a combined 60,000 locations nationwide — said they allow #pharmacy staff members to hand over customers’ medical records in the store.

  15. CW: arXiv review

    M. de Arruda Botelho Herr et al., "Bringing the Algorithms to the Data -- Secure Distributed Medical Analytics using the Personal Health Train (PHT-meDIC)"¹

    The need for data privacy and security -- enforced through increasingly strict data protection regulations -- renders the use of healthcare data for machine learning difficult. In particular, the transfer of data between different hospitals is often not permissible and thus cross-site pooling of data not an option. The Personal Health Train (PHT) paradigm proposed within the GO-FAIR initiative implements an 'algorithm to the data' paradigm that ensures that distributed data can be accessed for analysis without transferring any sensitive data. We present PHT-meDIC, a productively deployed open-source implementation of the PHT concept. Containerization allows us to easily deploy even complex data analysis pipelines (e.g, genomics, image analysis) across multiple sites in a secure and scalable manner. We discuss the underlying technological concepts, security models, and governance processes. The implementation has been successfully applied to distributed analyses of large-scale data, including applications of deep neural networks to medical image data.
