This is how you stop data trackers from sucking up your #healthdata - https://themarkup.org/the-breakdown/2025/06/17/this-is-how-you-stop-data-trackers-from-sucking-up-your-health-data #privacy #privacidad #salud

As a first post I would like to not highlight my own research, but the research of my colleagues, since I really love the way how this research began: With a question many people have asked.

As our working group researches on topics on #anonymization and #deidentification of medical and health data, the risk of identifying people or their membership in certain groups (e.g. having a specific diagnosis) is always present. On one of our retreats they decided to research the question:

Who are those adversaries, trying to do re-identify people in health data sets, what are their motives and what could be the harm?

The results can be found in the #OpenAccess paper: Health Data Re-Identification: Assessing Adversaries and Potential Harms

Healthcare exchanges in Nevada, Maine, Massachusetts and Rhode Island shared users’ sensitive health data with companies like Google and LinkedIn

Maine’s exchange, CoverME.gov, sent information on drug prescriptions and dosages to Google through an analytics tool. It also sent the names of doctors and hospitals that people had previously visited.
