I've been calling this for years. The next holocaust will be more efficient than Hitler could ever imagine beyond his wildest dreams. Big tech knows more than people know about themselves. We're all on lists we don't even know we're on. People will be discriminated for reasons they didn't know they could be.
IBM programmed the first one you described
Not too late to install all the tracker blockers, all the metrics blockers, and also start using plug-ins and tools to pollute the data one creates online so it is full of noise. Leave the cloud as much as possible too. Minimize social media use. Minimize use of mobile phones for social media as they are data polluters. Disable and cease using health tracking features in watches and such. Delete (well, "delete") what you can now before data preservation laws change. Companies don't like the cost of saving everyone's data so they often do have retention policies.
Any of these steps help.
Longer-term, all medical databases storing patient records should have tons of fake patients inserted to create noise there too, in lieu of better, safer storage policies. This is more of a challenge. People at risk may want to request copies of their medical records now and see if the provider has a deletion policy.
camera pans over to r/dogfree where they're hating anybody who has even been near a dog
