Is that stage 5, 6, or 7 of genocide?

So the judge decided that HIPAA just doesn't apply for, "protection"... okay I can see that being a possibly reasonable situation, so the patient is requesting the government do something on their behalf right? Oh, no, it has nothing to do with any patient request? Well then seems like plain government overreach to me, and undermining superseding federal law over protection of identifiable medical information. This will get thrown out on appeal immediately.

So if they ignore HIPPA, can we ignore laws too?

Why the fuck would he need them? I’m limiting how many of these types of articles I subject myself to as a means to protect my mental health. This blurb didn’t make it clear.

In his Thursday decision, Circuit Judge Michael Stelzer wrote that Bailey can collect documents under Missouri’s consumer protection statute that aren’t protected under federal mandate, namely the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, better known as HIPAA.

I'm confused. Is it saying, "for records which are not protected by HIPAA, you can have the documents"? Or is it saying, "you can collect these because I'm declaring them not subject to HIPAA"?

If the former...are there any relevant records which aren't covered by HIPAA? And if so, why in the world aren't they covered by HIPAA?

And if the latter, this seems (???) like a slam dunk ACLU or similar case?

Woah that's terrifying. Fuck this guy

This, this is why privacy and data protection is a thing. The new American fascists are on the rise.

This is why I never trust.

They say your data is private. I say... Until it isn't.

That guy looks like he punishes his dick to trans porn on the reg, like really fucking abuses it.
