Sure: what are the specific actual harms that have occurred in Australia by
the government knowing too much? Be specific. Name a few. (I won't count
getting done for tax dodging and crime. Other than that, I have trouble
coming up with anything)
This begs the question.
Some of the harms of the system are:
* that people will not seek medical advice when really they ought to for fear
of it being recorded; and
* that people will be discriminated against (eg insurance, employment) based on
their, now easily accessible, medical history - which flows back into the first.
These occur without any misuse of data.
