This reminds me of something Larry Page said at TED this year:<p><i>I say, wouldn't it be amazing if everyone's medical records were available anonymously to research doctors? And when someone accesses your medical record, a research doctor, they could see, you could see which doctor accessed it and why, and you could maybe learn about what conditions you have. I think if we just did that, we'd save 100,000 lives this year.<p>So I guess I'm just very worried that with Internet privacy, we're doing the same thing we're doing with medical records, is we're throwing out the baby with the bathwater, and we're not really thinking about the tremendous good that can come from people sharing information with the right people in the right ways.</i><p>Source: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mArrNRWQEso&t=839" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mArrNRWQEso&t=839</a> at 14:00.
