RFK Jr. Wants Every American to Be Sporting a Wearable Within Four Years

Or want your food to show up in grocery stores? Or airplanes and trains to arrive on time and safely?
Time is an important safety thing.
I don’t care. The only reason this is an issue is because of all the other expectations we’ve created around time and scheduling.

Thing is putting the horrific privacy concerns aside it’s not like it’s a bad idea from a health perspective. Everybody being simply more aware of the things their body is doing is immensely helpful on a societal scale.
Problem is there aren’t any devices that are local only or otherwise truly private. Apple stores your data locally on your phone which is good, but there’s no guarantee it’ll always be that way.
Pass a law that protects wearable health data under HIPAA and I’d consider it.
Laws don't work any longer. Only for poor folks.
