Minorities are the most exposed and I perfectly agree, but with the new capabilities (big data analysis in particular) I believe that ANYONE can be a target, not only minorities.

Edit: the book seems great, I'm gonna buy it, thank you for the hint.

Oh totally, that's the point of the system. I brought up who I perceive as groups most vulnerable to surveillance to address the "most people only care because shame" point. IE the medical data that could be considered 'sensitive' (and negatively impact career potential if more open) could include things like depression/anxiety, high blood pressure for a stressful work environment, etc. I'm generally of the opinion that open data hardens stereotypes, not breaks down walls.
