And just waiting for it to misidentify minorities like facial recognition regularly does.
The US keeps my data and myself secure. That’s why I live in a drone area, so they can look after me. :)
Lmao the fucking Balls to phrase it that way.
“We’ll only sell your data to vendors! It’s ok guys!”
I use Login.gov; “vendors” here probably refer to the NSF, NIH, etc. who, though government agencies themselves, are technically contacted with Login.gov and meet definitions of vendor.
So, my guess is they aren’t selling the data to vendors, just that vendors get the login “username” and authentication.
