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.
