    I’m Canadian. I can’t go to America cause when I was a teenager I ended up in a mental hospital once, and we apparently shared that private health data with the Americans, and the border guards can and will deny you entry for “you once tried to hurt yourself 20 years ago”, it’s been in the news.

    Israel already has everyone’s data, for a long time and share what they want with any of the five eyes, Europe in general. So it’s probably safe to say all Western states have each other’s citizens data, plus a few states, if expedient toward US objectives.
