They are collecting our medical records. I know this personally because an exgirlfriend of mine is a lawyer at Google and told me the same.

      Thank you. As much as I want more info, there’s literally nothing to discuss unless they bring hard evidence.

    That’s been going on for a very long time. Way before they even acquired Fitbit for such info.

    Bold of you to assume “we” have electronic patient records here in Germany, when they just introduced the e-doctors certificate and e-prescriptions a few months ago and it’s already not working as intended.

    IBM did it first. It wasn’t a secret. There was a Watson Health group dedicated to training ML models on medical records from large insurers and hospital networks. Among other things, the game plan was to have the system provide oversight for the notes of physicians and other medical practitioners - to spot poor quality/repetitive notes and alert the practitioner and/or their boss to the risk of malpractice/inability to bill for the encounter.
