MASSIVE VIOLATION OF PRIVACY
The information will give #ICE ofcls the ability to find “the location of aliens” across the country, says the agreement signed Monday between the Centers for #Medicare & #Medicaid Services & #DHS. The agreement has not been announced publicly.
The extraordinary disclosure of millions of such personal #health data to #deportation officials is the latest escalation in the #Trump admin’s #immigration crackdown….
#Trump admin hands over #Medicaid recipients' #PersonalData, including addresses, to #ICE

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has canceled plans to introduce new rules to ensure that data brokers obtain Americans’ consent before selling or sharing sensitive personal information, including financial data such as income, credit history and Social Security numbers.
Data brokers create extensive profiles on nearly every American, including sensitive data such as precise location history, political affiliations, and financial data - often without individuals’ knowledge or consent. This information is frequently resold for purposes ranging from marketing to law enforcement surveillance.
“Foreign and malign actors with access to these datasets could uncover information about high-level targets, such as military service members, that could be used for coercion, reputational damage, and blackmail,”.

From NPR.org: The Trump administration is taking state data for immigration push

Hi, I'm wondering if there's a way for multiple #apps #android to share data. And I think there isn't. But maybe I'm wrong !
It would be so that my favourite places in #osmand are accessible in #CoMaps or #MagicEarth and vice versa. Without exporting / importing of course!
#DOGE leaders pressured agency executives to hire a 21-year-old former INTERN at #Palantir, a #data analysis & #technology firm, & grant him #access to the #PersonalData of EVERY #SocialSecurity cardholder despite the executives’ concerns that he lacked sufficient training to handle such sensitive #information.
#Trump admin gives #PersonalData of #immigrant #Medicaid enrollees to #deportation officials
Trump’s admin this week provided deportation officials with personal data -- including the #immigration status -- on millions of Medicaid enrollees, a move that could make it easier to locate people as part of his sweeping immigration crackdown.

#CFPB Quietly Kills Rule to Shield Americans From #DataBrokers

The latest #data demands are "absolutely alarming," & "reckless" & likely violate the #Privacy Act & other statutes, said Jon Davisson, senior counsel & director of litigation at the nonprofit Electronic Privacy Information Center. He & other advocates warn the data could be used to enable #deportation & mass #surveillance efforts & would do little to address improper payments.
"It is an unprecedented extension of the administration's campaign to consolidate #PersonalData," Davisson said.
In 2024, #SNAP served an average of 42M people each month, acc/to the #USDA, at a cost of $100B. Only some categories of lawfully present noncitizens are eligible to receive SNAP benefits, & those without legal status can never qualify. However, a noncitizen parent without legal status may apply for the assistance on behalf of their #children who are #UScitizens.
The emails obtained by NPR also show the nationwide directive regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or #SNAP, follows a request by federal auditors for information that included #citizenship #data but not other data typically used to verify financial eligibility for the program.
The sweeping & unprecedented request comes as the #Trump admin ramps up the collection & consolidation of Americans' sensitive #data, & as that data has been used to make misleading claims about people in the US *illegally* accessing public benefits & committing fraud, & to build a greater capacity to deport them.

"Over the past #100Days, #DOGE teams have grabbed #personaldata about US residents from dozens of federal databases and are reportedly merging it all into a #masterdatabase at the #DHS… a #whistleblower had come forward to reveal that the master database will combine data from such federal agencies as the #SocialSecurity, the #IRS and the #DHHS. He also alleged that DOGE workers are filling backpacks with multiple laptops, each one loaded with purloined agency data."
