Ad Tech, I would bet its ad tech.

If this goes within the Ad Tech industry and knowing how Ad tech industry is, I don't feel quite surprised if we might see foreign adversarial nation buying the Social Security data from Ad tech/ (this Doge person in general either directly or through multiple layers) even in secretive manner at this point.

Either way this data is definitely going to spread behind closed doors.

Nobody in Ad Tech is going to risk jailtime for a slightly higher CPM.
I think you are more correct than you realize
I disagree - it's 100% a factor of how much money you have to pay in legal fees.

Zuck would be happy to take that data, and because he's worth a cool $350 billion, he'll do whatever the fuck he wants with that data, and we'll thank him by cutting his taxes.

You think Donald Trump would put him in jail?

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Nobody wants to fuck with PII, platforms will blackball you in a second if they think you have sensitive data. If you haven't worked in adtech, be quiet and do even the most trivial research before spouting nonsense.
