- Alphabet Inc’s Google is teaming up with a health-care company on a secret project to collect personal health-related information of millions of Americans across 21 states, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. Google launched"Project Nightingale" last year with St. Louis-based Ascension, according to the report, citing people familiar with the matter and internal documents. The data involved in Project Nightingale includes lab results, doctor diagnoses and hospitalization records, among other categories, and amounts to a complete health history, complete with patient names and dates of birth, the Journal reported.
The news follows an earlier announcement from Google that it would buy Fitbit Inc for $2.1 billion, aiming to enter wearables segment and invest in digital health.
Time to break up big tech. Dismantle them completely.

😂😂😂😂 None of this is 'secret' if you are intelligent enough to understand the basics of these big silicon Valley companies. They are tracking and collecting tons of your data even when they claim not to be. Assume anything you do digitally is being tracked and recorded.
Google is paid for its data, look out for big pharma and the introduction of new drugs 'preventing' foreseeable 'illnesses'.
should be fun
